Presentation Transcript

  1. Tidal Energy at theUldolmok Strait, Korea Testing of the Gorlov Helical Turbine designed and built by GCK Technology, Inc. conducted by the Korea Ocean Research & Development Institute (“KORDI”)

  2. The inventor, Dr. Alexander Gorlov, with a sub-unit of the Gorlov Helical Turbine (“GHT”) during construction of the GHT (1m diameter, 2.5 m length) tested by KORDI in the Uldolmok Strait.

  3. VARIOUS ROTORS

  4. Demonstration projectsCape Cod--1996

  5. Tidal Power system with 3 GHTs under a motel in Maine, May 2003

  6. Shelter Island Strait, July 2004

  7. The first tidal power generation from a GHT was on July 10, 2002. The 1 meter GHT turned at 160-180 rpms in a 4 knot current and generated 8-10 kW.

  8. In 2004 GCK built a larger GHT, 2.2 m in diameter and 2.5 m in length to be tested at KORDI’s site in the Uldolmok Strait.

  9. 1 meter and2.2 meter GHTs during testing by KORDI in the Uldolmok Strait.

  10. GORLOV’S CONCEPTUAL DESIGNfor a floating power station in the Uldolmok Strait

  11. KORDI’S CONCEPTUAL DESIGNfor a fixed power station in the Uldolmok Strait

  12. KORDI ESTIMATESOF TIDAL POWERIN THEJIN-DO ISLAND AREAUldolmok Strait = 470 MWJaing Juk Strait = 1,230 MWMaeng Gol Strait = 1,910 MWTOTAL = 3,610 MWThis is the equivalent of 3.5 nuclear power plants
