The local horizintal flux of tidal energy is characterized by the surface density $\omega$ = $\rho$ g h ζ u ($\rho$ - sea water density, g - gravitation, h - depth, ζ - tidal surface elevation, u - vertically averaged tidal current velocity vector). In general the flux vector $\omega$ comprises active and reactive components whose relation determines the local structure of a tidal wave.(omitted)

The pilot tidal current power plant is to be constructed at the Uldolmok between Chindo and Haenam, during next year. and extensive coastal engineering research works have been carried out. In this paper we describes some observation results of the tide and tidal current. as well as modeling work in order to investigate the tide and tidal current regime change in relation to the tidal current power plant (TCPP) construction. The special modeling skill in order to consider the turbine operation in the TCPP is developed and applied to the estimation for the flow regime change by the simple layout of the tidal current power plant.

The sihwa tidal power plant is the first tidal power plant in korea and the biggest of the world. The tidal power turbine is operated by tidal energy. The tidal energy is generated by the relative motion of the earth and celestial masses specially the sun and the moon, which interact via gravitational forces. The tidal power is estimated by the predicted the tidal amplitude and phase. This paper gives a process of estimate of tidal power using Matlab T-tide based on tide prediction. The proposed method is tested using actual recorded data comparing to predicted date.

Due to global warming, the need to secure an alternative resource has become more important nationally. Due to the high tidal range of up to 9.7m on the west coast of Korea, numerous tidal current projects are being planned and constructed. To extract a significant quantity of power, a tidal current farm with a multi-arrangement is necessary in the ocean. The rotor, which initially converts the energy, is a very important component because it affects the efficiency of the entire system, and its performance is determined by various design variables. The power generation is strongly dependent on the size of the rotor and the incoming flow velocity. However, the interactions between devices also contribute significantly to the total power capacity. Therefore, rotor performance considering the interaction problems needs to be investigated for generating maximum power in a specific field. This paper documents the characteristics of wake induced by horizontal axis tidal current power turbine.

Horizontal axis tidal turbines are machinery inherited from the principle of wind turbines to enable the application of utilizing ocean's current energy. Its function does not differ from that of wind case, which is to convert fluid's kinetics energy to mechanical torque, therefore generates electricity. Since the ocean has been an enormous source of untapped power, tidal turbines have been being investigated recently to meet human's demand of energy with respect to environment friendly approach. This paper introduces a couple of turbine designs which are anticipated to have high performance. A comparison among recent works on the same topic is also made for validation.

The characteristics for pollutant transport in tidal influenced area was investigated using tidal wave hydraulic scale model. Hydraulic scale model was composed of the tidal generator, attenuation area and channel. Also, wave height, current meter and conductivity meter were used with the measured instruments in hydraulic scale model. NaCl with a tracer was used to evaluate the advection phenomena under the different velocity profiles. The arrival time of the maximum concentration in the condition of the relatively fast velocity was measured about 30 seconds faster than ones in the conditions of low velocity. The measured concentrations of the tracer were shown in the detection points of the flow direction consecutively.

Because of its predictability of the energy cycle and huge scale power output, the ocean energy from tidal power utilization has always received attention as a great energy source, even though its development cost, including the embankment construction, is so much higher than that of any other energy source. Nevertheless, nowadays many projects are being planned on account of institutional support from the government and the recent advance of construction technology. In Korea, the new industry field operating and managing the tidal power plant has already opened. But we are facing a number of problems for optimal operation of tidal power plant that are a lack of operation experience and a skill of professional management and others. This paper suggests a novel way to determine the starting head of power generation by generating power comparison method For this new method, the paper discusses many factors including changing the volume of the basin, the number of operating turbines and gates and forecasting the tidal amplitude and the characteristic curve of turbine and gate. Finally we verified that it can increase about 2% an annual power generation compared with the conventional method using the original operational function made in the plant design process.

Due to global warming, the need to secure an alternative resource has become more important nationally. Having very strong current on the west coast with up to 10 m tidal range, there are many suitable site for the application of TCP (Tidal Current Power) in Korea. On the south west regions between many islands that create strong current in the narrow channels. The rotor is one of the essential components which can convert tidal current energy into rotational energy to generate electricity. The design optimization of rotor is very important to maximize the power production. The performance of rotor can be determined by various parameters including number of blades, shape, sectional size, diameters and etc. This paper introduces the multi-layer vertical axis tidal current power system which can be applied to offshore jetties and piers effectively. Various cases of VAT turbine were designed. Specifically, the number of blades and turbine shape are changed in several cases. Also, performance analysis was carried out by CFD.

최근 점점 더 많은 연구자와 정부에서 해양에너지 자원 개발에 대한 관심이 고조되고 있다. 장죽수도는 조류에너지 밀도가 높아 조류 발전소를 건설하기에 적합한 잠재적 후보지 중 하나이다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 ADCIRC 모델을 이용하여 장죽수도의 조류자원의 잠재량을 평가하기 위한 수치적 접근방식을 제시하고, 내부 코드를 이용하여 조석 특성을 입력 매개변수로 활용하여 1 MW급 규모의 조류에너지 변환장치를 대상으로 4개의 레이아웃으로 배열하고 후류 효과로 인한 연간 에너지 생산량에 관한 수치해석을 수행하였다. 그 결과 효율이 가장 좋은 배치는 연간 최대 12.96 GWh/year의 에너지를 생성할 수 있으며, 이 값은 후류 효과로 인한 에너지 손실을 고려하면 연간 0.16 GWh씩 감소될 수 있음을 보였다. 또한, 창낙조 때 터빈 요 각도를 변경함으로써 이 요소가 에너지 추출에 미치는 영향을 분석하였으며, 터빈 배열은 터빈 요 각도가 346°와 164°(북쪽에서 시계 방향으로)일 때 대조기와 소조기에서 차례로 최대 조류 에너지를 얻을 수 있었다.

The present paper relates to an integration power system combining tidal power generation and ocean current power generation, and more particularly, to an integration power system combining a tidal power plant and two ocean current power parks, which is capable of increasing the operating rate of power facilities and efficiently generating electrical energy by using incoming seawater into the lake through turbine generators of a tidal power plant or fast flow of seawater discharged to a sea side through sluice gates of a tidal power dam. It is shown that the integration power system is a new promising ocean power system and the ocean current turbine generators in the ocean current power parks of the integration power system are smaller in size and larger in power generation capacity compared with the tidal current turbine generators in the ocean.
