Experimental Investigation on Sediment Erosion and Diffusion Characteristics During Coandă-Effect-Based Nodule Collection
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Small-scale experiments were designed and conducted to investigate the sediment erosion and diffusion characteristics during Coandă-effect-based polymetallic nodule collection under a viscous sediment bed. A protocol for ...
Motion and Mooring Load Responses of a Novel 12-MW Semi-Submersible Floating Wind Turbine: An Experimental Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Due to the complexity of the integrated Floating Wind Turbine (FWT) system, obtaining reliable results necessitates extensive experiments. This paper conducts a comprehensive study on the motion performance and mooring ...
Dynamic Analysis of Three Alternative Mooring Systems for a Semi-Submersible Wind Turbine in Intermediate Water Depth
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Three forms of the mooring system in 60 m water depth are proposed for semi-submersible with partially inclined columns (SPIC) concept floating wind turbine (FWT). One is a simple form with only catenary lines, and the ...
Effects of Aerodynamic Damping and Gyroscopic Moments on Dynamic Responses of a Semi-Submersible Floating Vertical Axis Wind Turbine: An Experimental Study
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Floating vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) offer certain advantages over floating horizontal-axis wind turbines (HAWTs), particularly in terms of the potential to lower the cost of energy. In this study, a 5 MW floating ...
