Dynamic Analysis of a Truss Spar-Type Floating Foundation for 5 MW Vertical-Axis Wind Turbine
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: This paper studies the dynamic characteristic of the truss Spar-type floating foundation used to support the offshore vertical-axis wind turbine (VAWT). The effects of changes in foundation structural parameters on its ...
Effects of Water Inside Semiclosed Moon Pool on the Hydrodynamic Coefficients and Heaving Damping of a Truss Spar Platform
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The hydrodynamic coefficients and heaving damping of a truss spar platform were studied by the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) method with considering the semiclosed moon pool. A partial model was established to investigate ...
A Numerical Prediction on the Transient Response of a Spar-Type Floating Offshore Wind Turbine in Freak Waves
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Simulations are conducted in time domain to investigate the dynamic response of a spar-type floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) under the freak wave scenarios. Toward this end, a coupled aero-hydro-mooring in-house ...
Influence of Vortex-Induced Loads on the Motion of SPAR-Type Wind Turbine: A Coupled Aero-Hydro-Vortex-Mooring Investigation
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: The nonlinear coupling effect between degree-of-freedom (DOFs) and the influence of vortex-induced loads on the motion of SPAR-type floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) are studied based on an aero-hydro-vortex-mooring ...
