초록

풍력 발전은 미래의 청정 에너지원으로 활용 가치가 높으나, 초저주파 소음을 발생한다. 초저주파 소음은 차폐가 어려우며, 생리적으로 다양한 부정적인 효과를 유발할 수 있다. 본 논문에서는 Wind Turbine Syndrome (WTS)을 유발하는 초저주파수 풍력 소음의 유해성을 개관하고, 풍력 발전기 소음의 측정 및 관리를 위한 기술적인 측면을 고찰하고자 한다.

Wind power energy harvesting has a big potential as a future clean energy resource, but accompanies infrasonic noises. The infrasound is difficult to shield and can induce various negative physiological effects. In this study, the Wind Turbine Syndrome (WTS) caused by the infrasonic noises are introduced, and the technical aspects for the measurement and management of the infrasonic noises from wind power plants are discussed.
