Abstract

Due to the oil price is increasing continuously, active researches on sources of renewable energy has been invigorated. Above all, ocean energy has high-usability because of ocean current has high density and large quantity compared to the wind energy. In this paper, efficiency enhancement of the wave power generation was described through horizontal plate installation at the break water wave power generation system that converts the ocean energy into electricity. The power-conversion efficiency can be improved by horizontal plate installation at existing system, but there has been insufficient studies domestically. The purpose of this paper is to analyze about the effects of the horizontal plate installation on the breakwater wave power generation system by wave basin experiment and to propose a position of horizontal plate installation.

최근 전 세계적으로 고유가 상황이 지속됨에 따라 신재생에너지원에 대한 연구가 활발히 진행되고 있다. 그중 해양에너지는 그 양이 매우 많고 밀도가 높기 때문에 활용성이 높다. 특히 우리나라의 경우 삼면이 바다로 둘러싸여있기 때문에 해양에너지원이 매우 풍부하다. 본 논문은 해양에너지를 전력으로 변환하는 시스템중 하나인 방파제형 파력발전 시스템에 수평판 설치를 통한 발전 효율 향상에 관하여 서술하였다. 기존의 방파제형 파력발전 상부에 수평판을 설치함으로써 시스템의 전력변환효율을 향상시킬 수 있으나 아직까지 국내에서는 이에 대한 연구가 미흡하다. 본 논문에서는 조파수조 실험을 통하여 수평판이 방파제형 파력발전 시스템에 미치는 영향에 대해 분석하고, 본 시스템에 적합한 수평판 설치에 대해 제안한다.
