Recently, the share of wind power in energy markets has sharply increased with the active development of renewable energy internationally. In particular, large-scale wind farms are being developed far from the coast to make use of abundant wind resources and to reduce noise pollution. In addition to the electromagnetic interference (EMI) caused by offshore wind farms to coastal or air surveillance radars, it is necessary to investigate the EMI on global maritime distress and safety system (GMDSS) communications between ship and coastal stations. For this purpose, this study investigates whether the transmitted field of MF/HF band from a ship would be subject to interference or attenuation below the threshold at a coastal receiver. First, using geographic information system digital maps and 3D CAD models of wind turbines, the area of interest is electromagnetically modeled with patch models. Although high frequency analysis methods like Physical Optics are appropriate to analyze wide areas compared to its wavelength, the high frequency analysis method is first verified with an accurate low frequency analysis method by simplifying the surrounding area and turbines. As a result, the received wave power is almost the same regardless of whether the wind farms are located between ships and coastal stations. From this result, although wind turbines are large structures, the size is only a few wavelengths, so it does not interfere with the electric field of MF/HF distress communications.

Eco-friendly and renewable energy sources are actively being researched in recent times, and of shore wind power generation requires advanced design technologies in terms of increasing the capacities of wind turbines and enlarging wind turbine installation vessels (WTIVs). The WTIV ensures that the hull is situated at a height that is not affected by waves. The most important part of the WTIV is the leg structure, which must respond dynamically according to the wave, current, and wind loads. In particular, the wave load is composed of irregular waves, and it is important to know the exact dynamic response. The dynamic response analysis uses a single degree of freedom (SDOF) method, which is a simplified approach, but it is limited owing to the consideration of random waves. Therefore, in industrial practice, the time-domain analysis of random waves is based on the multi degree of freedom (MDOF) method. Although the MDOF method provides high-precision results, its data convergence is sensitive and difficult to apply owing to design complexity. Therefore, a dynamic amplification factor (DAF) estimation formula is developed in this study to express the dynamic response characteristics of random waves through time-domain analysis based on different variables. It is confirmed that the calculation time can be shortened and accuracy enhanced compared to existing MDOF methods. The developed formula will be used in the initial design of WTIVs and similar structures.

As environmental regulations such as the International Maritime Organization (IMO)'s strategy to reduce greenhouse gases(GHG) are strengthened, technology development such as eco-friendly ships and alternative fuels is expanding. As part of this, ship propulsion technology using energy reduction and wind propulsion technology is emerging, especially in shipping companies and shipbuilders. By securing wind propulsion technology and introducing empirical research into shipbuilding and shipping, a high value-added market using eco-friendly technology can be created. Moreover, by reducing the fuel consumption rate of operating ships, GHG can be reduced by 6-8%. Rotor Sail (RS) technology is to generate a hydrodynamic lift in the vertical direction of the cylinder when the circular cylinder rotates at a constant speed and passes through the fluid. This is called the Magnus effect, and this study attempted to propose a plan to increase propulsion efficiency through a numerical analysis study on turbulence flow characteristics around RS, a wind power assistance propulsion system installed on a ship. Therefore, C_L and C_D values according to SR and AR changes were derived as parameters that affect the aerodynamic force of the RS, and the flow characteristics around the rotor sail were compared according to EP application.

전 세계적으로 온실가스 배출 규제가 강화되고 있고 에너지 절감 및 환경오염 문제가 없는 재생에너지에 대한 관심이 높아지고 있다. 육상 전력을 공급받기 어려움 해양 구조물의 경우에는 배터리와 같은 에너지 저장장치 또는 재생에너지를 활용하여 독립 전원 시스템을 구성하게 된다. 해양에서 활용이 가능한 재생에너지로는 태양광, 풍력, 파력, 조력등이 있으며 이러한 자연 에너지를 활용하는 재생에너지 발전 시스템의 경우 환경의 영향을 많이 받게 되므로 안정적인 전력 생산에 어려움이 있다. 예를 들어 태양광 발전 시스템의 경우 일조량에 따라 발전량이 결정되고, 풍력 발전 시스템의 경우 풍속 및 풍향이 발전량에 영향을 미친다. 따라서 독립전원시스템에서 태양광-풍력-파력의 멀티소스를 갖는 하이브리드 발전 시스템을 구성하여 기상상태에 따른 발전량을 보완가능하게 구성하면 보다 안정적으로 전력을 얻을 수 있다. 본 연구에서는 항만 및 협수로를 항해하는 선박 안전을 위해 설치된 등부표에 적용하는 해상하이브리드발전시스템을 설계하고 실증을 통해 하이브리드 발전시스템의 발전 특성을 확인한다.

In recent years, the interest in a various energy sources is increasing. Among these energies, there are many kinds of researches for the kite which can generate the energy from high-altitude wind power. There are many attempts to apply the kite to the wind power generation and ship salvage, and it must require the flight control of the kite for this applications. In this paper, we suggest this flight controller based on the flight technique of sport kite. For this controller based on the human controller, we design the simple fuzzy controller with simple fuzzy rules.

신재생에너지 중에서 풍력발전은 많은 연구가 진행되면서 상용화가 진행되었다. 하지만 파력발전은 세계적으로도 연구가 부족하고, 다양한 파력발전장치의 형태가 존재하면서 최적화에 대한 고민과 함께 아직 상용화에 접근하지 못하고 있다. 또한 풍력발전보다 더 많은 에너지 변환 단계가 존재하고, 파랑의 특성에 따른 입력 에너지가 급격하게 변화하기 때문에 파력발전용 PCS는 제어가 복잡하다. 본 논문에서는 파력발전장치의 각 단계의 실측 데이터를 기반으로 파랑의 특성을 반영한 에너지원의 모델링을 진행하고 이를 기반으로 파력발전용 PCS 제어특성 분석을 진행한다. 파력발전용 PCS는 백투백 컨버터(back to back converter)로 구성하고, PI 제어기 기반의 SVPWM을 사용한다. 결론적으로 본 연구를 기반으로 파력발전용 PCS 제어기 구성을 통한 향후 연구방향을 도출할 수 있을 것이다.

As the development of renewable energy expands internationally to cope with global warming and climate change, the share of wind power generation has been gradually increasing. Although wind farms can produce electric power for 24 h a day compared to solar power plants, Their interfere with the operation of nearby radars or communication equipment must be analyzed because large-scale wind power turbines are installed. This study analyzed whether a land radio station can receive sufficient signals when a ship sailing outside the offshore wind farm transmits distress signals on the VHF band. Based on the geographic information system digital map around the target area, wind turbine CAD model, and wind farm layout, the area of interest and wind farm were modeled to enable numerical analysis. Among the high frequency analysis techniques suitable for radio wave analysis in a wide area, a dedicated program applying physical optics (PO) and shooting and bouncing ray (SBR) techniques were used. Consequently, the land radio station could receive the electromagnetic field above the threshold of the VHF receiver when a ship outside the offshore wind farm transmitted a distress communication signal. When the line of sight between the ships and the land station are completely blocked, the strength of the received field decreases, but it is still above the threshold. Hence, although a wind farm is a huge complex, a land station can receive the electromagnetic field from the ship's VHF transmitter because the wave length of the VHF band is sufficiently long to have effects such as diffraction or reflection.
