Long-term offshore wind resource assessment was performed for the offshore site off the Daejeong coast on Jeju Island of South Korea. A jacket type offshore met mast was installed at the site to measure wind and meteorological conditions for 1 year from 1 July 2015 to 30 June 2016. The wind conditions were measured at 32.5 m, 72.5 m and 100.5 m above mean sea level (AMSL). Fundamental wind characteristics such as average wind speed, wind direction frequency, turbulence intensity and so on were analyzed utilizing 1-year wind measurements. In order to correct the limited period of 1-year measurements to long-term conditions, the Measure-Correlate-Predict (MCP) method was applied to estimate 30-year wind conditions using nearby Modern-Era Retrospective Analysis for Research and Applications, Version 2 (MERRA-2) reanalysis data. Also, wind turbine classes suitable for the offshore site were determined based on extreme wind speed estimations and the measured ambient turbulence intensity. Five commercial wind turbines were chosen for estimation of the 30-year annual energy productions (AEPs) and capacity factors (CFs). As a result, it was estimated that the 30-year average wind speed was 7.86 m/s at 100.5 m AMSL. The wind turbine class II rating was estimated to be suitable for enduring extreme wind speed for a return period of 50 years. For the 30-year results, the minimum CF of 30.48% was estimated, while the maximum nearly reached 45%.
:In order to support various studies for assessment of onshore and offshore wind turbine system including foundations, the land-based version of 2MW PMSG direct drive wind turbine has been analyzed using HAWC2 that account for the coupled dynamics of the wind inflow, elasticity, and controls of the turbine. this work presents the steady-state response of the system and natural frequency of the first thirteen structure turbine modes as a function of wind speed. Rotor, generator speeds, pitch angle, power production, thrust force, deflections of tower and blade are compared for one case below and one case above the rated wind speed.Key Words:Land-and sea-based wind turbines(육해상 풍력발전기), Direct drive(직접 구동형), Rated rotor speed (정격로터 속도), Permanent Magnet Synchronous Generator(영구자석 동기발전기), Pitch angle(피치각도), Peak power coefficient(최고점 출력 파워계수)
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
