Abstract

There is a need to substitute offshore met-mast with remote sensing equipment such as wind lidar since the initial installation and O&M costs for offshore met-mast are quite high. In this study, applicability of wind lidar is verified by intercomparison test of wind speed and direction data from offshore met-mast and wind lidar for simultaneous operational period. Results at various heights show no statistical difference in trend and size and data from wind lidar is found to be more accurate and have less error than data from offshore met-mast where error from structural shading effect is significant.

풍력 개발을 위한 해상기상탑은 초기 설치비와 유지보수비가 크기 때문에 윈드 라이다와 같은 원격관측장비를 이용하여 기상탑을 대체할 필요가 있다. 본 연구에서는 해상기상탑에서 윈드 라이다를 동시 운영하고 수집된 풍속 및 풍향의 관측결과를 상호 비교하여 윈드 라이다의 적용성을 검증하였다. 높이별 풍속 및 풍향 관측결과 두 자료간의 크기 및 경향 등의 통계적 특성 차이는 거의 없으며, 기상탑 관측자료는 구조물 차폐영향에 의한 오차가 발생하는 반면, 윈드 라이다는 오차가 없는 보다 정확한 자료를 얻을 수 있는 것을 확인하였다.
