최근 해상 풍력 발전이 개발됨에 따라 풍력발전타워는 더욱 거대해지고 있으며, 육상의 타워에 비해 파력과 흐름 등 다양한 외력에 노출되어있다. 이에 따라 해상 타워의 기초는 육상 타워 보다 더욱 안정성이 요구된다. 본 연구에서는 현재 관측된 최대 풍속인 60m/s가 해상풍력타워로 향하여 불 때, p-y 관계를 이용해, 원통형, 계단형, 원추형 타워의 기초에 작용하는 풍력과 파력을 해석 하였다.

The objective of this work was to develop a methodology for geodetic monitoring on onshore wind towers, to ascertain the existence of displacements from object points located in the tower and at the foundation's base. The geodesic auscultation was carried out in the Gravatá 01 and 02 wind towers of the Eólica Gravatá wind farm, located in the Brazilian municipality of Gravatá-PE, using a stable Measurement Reference System. To verify the existence of displacements, pins were implanted, with semi-spherical surfaces, at the bases of the towers being monitored, measured by means of high-precision geometric leveling and around the Gravatá 02 tower, concrete landmarks, iron rods and reflective sheets were implanted, observed using geodetic/topographic methods: GNSS survey, transverse with forced centering, three-dimensional irradiation, edge measurement method and trigonometric leveling of unilateral views. It was found that in the Gravatá 02 tower the average rays of the circular sections of the transverse welds (ST) were 1.8431 m ± 0.0005 m (ST01) and 1.6994 m ± 0.0268 m of ST22, where, 01 and 22 represent the serial number of the transverse welds along the tower. The average calculation of the deflection between the coordinates of the center of the circular section of the ST22 and the vertical reference alignment of the ST1 was 0°2'39.22" ± 2.83" in the Northwest direction and an average linear difference of 0.0878 m ± 0.0078 m. The top deflection angle was 0°8'44.88" and a linear difference of ± 0.2590 m, defined from a non-linear function adjusted by Least Squares Method (LSM).

최근 화석 연료의 사용에 따른 문제들로 인해 다양한 그린 에너지들이 주목 받고 있다. 그린 에너지의 한 종류로써 풍력 발전의 원동력인 바람은 육상에서 보다 해상에서 양질의 값이 관측된다. 또한, 부지확보, 소음, 전자파와 같은 육상 풍력 발전의 문제점을 해결할 대안으로써, 또한 더 효율적인 풍력 발전을 위해 해상 풍력 발전의 개발이 주목받고 있다. 이에 따라 해상 풍력에 대한 많은 연구들이 수행되고 있다. 풍력 타워가 해상으로 진출함에 따라 해상 풍력 타워는 점차 거대해지고 있다. 따라서 풍력과 파력을 견뎌내기 위한 안정성이 요구되고 있다. 본 연구에서는 p-y 관계를 이용해 다층 지반의 기초에 작용하는 외력을 계산하였다.

This paper presents a comparative structural analysis of lattice hybrid tower with six legs with conventional tubular steel tower for an onshore wind turbine using finite element method. Usually a lattice hybrid tower will have a conventional industry standard 'L' profile section for the lattice construction with four legs. In this work, the researcher attempted to identify and analyze the strength of six legged lattice hybrid tower designed with a special profile instead of four legged L profile. And to compare the structural benefits of special star profile with the conventional tubular tower. Using Ansys, a commercial FEM software, both static and dynamic structural analyses were performed. A simplified finite element model that represents the wind turbine tower was created using Shell elements. An ultimate load condition was applied to check the stress level of the tower in the static analysis. For the dynamic analysis, the frequency extraction was performed in order to obtain the natural frequencies of the tower.

Gust factor is an important parameter for the conversion between peak gust wind and mean wind speed used for the structural design and wind-related hazard mitigation. The gust factor of typhoon wind is observed to show a significant dispersion and some differences with large-scale weather systems, e.g., monsoons and extratropical cyclones. In this study, insitu measurement data captured by 13 meteorological towers during a strong typhoon Morakot are collected to investigate the statistical characteristics, height and wind speed dependency of the gust factor. Onshore off-sea and off-land winds are comparatively studied, respectively to characterize the underlying terrain effects on the gust factor. The theoretical method of peak factor based on Gaussian assumption is then introduced to compare the gust factor profiles observed in this study and given in some building codes and standards. The results show that the probability distributions of gust factor for both off-sea winds and off-land winds can be well described using the generalized extreme value (GEV) distribution model. Compared with the off-land winds, the off-sea gust factors are relatively smaller, and the probability distribution is more leptokurtic with longer tails. With the increase of height, especially for off-sea winds, the probability distributions of gust factor are more peaked and right-tailed. The scatters of gust factor decrease with the mean wind speed and height. AS/NZ's suggestions are nearly parallel with the measured gust factor profiles below 80m, while the fitting curve of off-sea data below 120m is more similar to AIJ, ASCE and EU.
