This study had the purpose on feasibility judgment through performance forecast of wind power generation system using the cross flow vertical type wind power turbine for the situation of domestic small size wind power technology development. Wind power generation system uses the principle of venturi tube that gathers the wind through the first guide vane, and second guide vein changes the angle of the wind simultaneously by playing the role of venturi tube. After this, wind got out from the second guide vane spins the wind power turbine and has the meaning of judging on the aspect of numerical interpretation the feasibility for the small size wind power generation through wind power generation system that comes out from the back.

대형 풍력터빈은 지상 전단 흐름 내에서 회전하면서 주기적인 유입속도의 변동 조건 하에 운용된다. 수직 전단흐름에 의해서 경계층 내의 유입 속도는 최고점에서 속도가 최대가 되고 최저점에서 속도가 최소가 된다. 이러한 공간적인 풍속 분포는 풍력터빈 로터의 허브와 저속회전축에서 6분력 하중에 대한 주기적인 진동을 야기한다. 본 연구에서는 수직 전단 흐름 효과를 무시한 균일 흐름장과 지상 전단 흐름효과를 고려한 두 가지 경우에 대한 공력 하중을 비교분석하였다. 계산 결과로부터 허브에서의 추력과 굽힘모멘트, LSS의 굽힘모멘트가 크게 변동하는 결과를 보여주었다. 따라서 지상 전단흐름 효과를 반영한 공력 해석이 피로 해석을 위해서 반드시 필요함을 확인하였다.

For accurate wind resource assessment and wind turbine performance test, it is essential to secure wind data covering a rotor plane of wind turbine including a hub height. In general, we can depict wind speed profile by extrapolating or interpolating the wind speed data measured from a meteorological tower where multiple anemometers are mounted at different heights using a power-law of wind speed profile. The most important parameter of a power-law equation is a vertical wind profile exponent which represents local characteristics of terrain and land cover. In this study, we calculated diurnal vertical wind profile exponents of 8 locations in Jeju Island who possesses excellent wind resource according to the GUM (Guide to the Expression of Uncertainty in Measurement) to evaluate its uncertainty. Expanded uncertainty is calculated by combined standard uncertainty, which is the result of composing type A standard uncertainty with type B standard uncertainty. Although pooled standard deviation should be considered to derive type A uncertainty, we used the standard deviation of vertical wind profile exponent of each day avoiding the difficult of uncertainty evaluation of diurnal wind profile variation. It is anticipated that the evaluated uncertainties of diurnal vertical wind profile exponents at 8 locations in Jeju Island are to be registered as a national standard reference data and widely used in the relevant areas.

As the world supply of fossil fuel sources decreases, the need for efficient energy consevation and develping green energy technologies becomes critical. Because of the high cost of the foundation for large turbines and optional high wind speed (over 12 m/s), it is very difficult to be located at inland city. For the solution above mentioned problem, we have been experimented about that not only using the adaption of wind power system on buildings for improving turbine efficiency, but also applying a wound rotor type induction generator for a small wind turbine.In this research, we try to find out the wind direction and wind speed those were measured every 1 min., during operation period, using the anemometers which consist of horizontally spinning cups on a vertical post. Performance testing for small wind turbine generating system was carried out by using the induction motor and invertor. Finally, we measured the power of 1 kW wind turbine system with the clamp meter and a voltmeter.

In this study, the design and verification of 6 kW class lift-type vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT) has been conducted using advanced CAE technique based on computational fluid dynamics (CFD), finite element method (FEM), and computational structural dynamics (CSD). Designed aerodynamic performance of the VAWT model is tested using unsteady CFD method. Designed structural safety is also tested through the evaluation of maximum induced stress level and resonance characteristics using FEM and CSD methods. It is importantly shown that the effect of master eccentricity due to rotational inertia needs to be carefully considered to additionally investigate dynamic stress and deformation level of the designed VAWT system.

In this study, aerodynamic analyses have been conducted for 4-Bladed Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine (VAWT) configuration and the results are compared with experimental data. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes equation with LES turbulence model is solved for unsteady flow problems. In addition, the computation results by standard k-${\omega}$ and SST k-${\omega}$ turbulence models are also presented and compared. An experiment model of 4-Bladed VAWT model has been designed and constructed herein. Experimental tests for aerodynamic performance of the present VAWT model are practically conducted using the vehicle mounted testing system. Comparison results between the experiment and the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) analyses are presented in order to show the accuracy of CFD analyses using the different turbulent models.

본 논문은 NACA 익형의 블레이드를 가지는 다리우스 수직축 풍력발전기(VAWT)의 성능특성에 대한 연구이다. 다양한 설계변수를 이용한 다리우스 VAWT 의 최적 형상을 예측하기 위해서 블레이드 근처에서 나타나는 공력특성 및 박리유동, 유동과 블레이드 간의 상호작용, 이로 인해 유도되는 토크 및 출력특성 등을 분석하였다. 블레이드의 최적 형상 설계 및 주변 유동과의 상호작용 특성을 보기 위하여 다양한 인자들 (즉, 코드길이, 로터직경, 피치각, 블레이드의 두께비 및 비틀림각 등)을 고려하였다. 본 연구에서 연구결과로는 TSR 가 낮은 영역에서는 솔리디티가 큰 로터가 높은 출력계수를 가지는 반면, TSR 이 높은 영역에서는 솔리디티가 작은 로터가 높은 출력계수를 가진다. 블레이드의 익형이 안쪽으로 향하는 피치각은 $-2^{\circ}$와 비틀림각이 $0^{\circ}$ 일 때, 다리우스형 VAWT 가 최대 출력을 발생하였다.

In this study, performance analyses have been conducted for a 5MW class wind turbine blade model. Advanced computational analysis system based on computational fluid dynamics(CFD) and computational structural dynamics(CSD) has been developed in order to investigate detailed dynamic responsed of wind turbine blade. Reynolds-averaged Navier-Stokes (RANS) equations with K-${\epsilon}$ turbulence model are solved for unsteady flow problems of the rotating turbine blade model. A fully implicit time marching scheme based on the Newmark direct integration method is used for computing the coupled aeroelastic governing equations of the 3D turbine blade for fluid-structure interaction (FSI) problems. Predicted aerodynamic performance considering structural deformation effect of the blade show different results compared to the case of rigid blade model.

풍력타워는 수직형 풍력터빈의 성능을 향상하기 위하여 사용되어진다. 하지만 풍력타워의 성능은 내부반경, 외부반경, 안내벽의 개수 등의 설계변수에 의하여 좌우된다. 따라서 본 연구에서는 풍력타워의 효율적인 설계변수를 찾기 위하여 실험적인 연구를 수행하였다. 실험에 사용된 풍동의 시험부는 높이 2 m, 폭 2.2 m이며, 7개의 안내벽을 가진 풍력타워의 한 층을 모델로 제작하고, 그 내부에 풍력터빈을 설치하였다. 다양한 설계변수에 대하여 실험을 하기 위하여 세 가지 종류의 안내벽을 사용하였다. 상대적인 성능평가를 위하여 동일한 입구속도에서 풍력타워를 원주방향으로 회전이동하여 출력계수를 측정하였다. 실험의 결과에서 풍력타워의 내부반경과 풍력터빈의 회전반경과의 간격이 풍력터빈의 성능을 향상하는데 가장 큰 영향을 미치는 변수임을 보였다.
