등부표용 다채널 AFS에 관한 연구

Abstract

Recently, maritime traffic due to thicken developments in transportation technology and global economic has been grown. Therefore, the importance of equipment has increased in order to help facilitate maritime traffic. Buoy is working for a safety of maritime transportation. And active research activities regards the power system of Buoy using a hybrid generation system which includes a photovoltaic generation system, wind power generation system and a wave power generation system. However, when the Buoy is operated on a maritime environment for a substantial period of time, it was reported that the shellfish was adhered inside the water column. To tackle this problem, researches on AFS (Anti-Fouling System) are on the progress. However, use of the single channel AFS resulted in frequent replacement of anode. Thus, this paper proposes a multi-channel AFS and experiments were on AFS simulation and sea experiment. To improve the reliability of the simulation, the elution anode result was applied to AFS simulation program.

The outcome of the simulation illustrates that the proposed multi-channel AFS's anode in the buoy has been ionized equally, and in the tested multi-channel AFS at sea experiment, too. The result of sea experiment had demonstrated through the effects.
