Motion characteristics of a barge-type floating vertical-axis wind turbine with moonpools

Ocean Engineering, 2021
Abstract The studies on floating offshore wind turbines have been increasing over recent decades due to the growing investments of industries in marine renewable energy. Compared with horizontal-axis wind turbines, research on vertical-axis wind turbines is relatively few, though the latter may have advantages over the former in some aspects, for ...

Experimental and numerical study of a barge-type FOWT platform under wind and wave load

Ocean Engineering, 2021
Abstract In this study, a floating barge moon pool platform model equipped with an NREL 5 MW wind turbine and mooring systems was numerically and experimentally tested under wave and wind loads to analyze the hydrodynamic performance and stability of the barge platform and the mooring system in a 50 m water depth condition.

Structural control for a barge-type floating offshore wind turbine with a skyhook inerter configuration

2020 Chinese Control And Decision Conference (CCDC), 2020
This paper studies the wind and wave-induced structural load mitigation problem for a floating offshore wind turbine with a barge platform, where a tuned mass damper (TMD) with a skyhook inerter configuration is employed. The skyhook inerter is intended to virtually increase the mass of the TMD, which will be demonstrated that the structural loads can ...

Analysis of the Dynamic Responses of a Barge-Type Platform With Multiple Wind Turbines

Volume 7: Ocean Renewable Energy
Abstract In recent years, there has been significant growth in ocean exploration. Energy production is an essential component of a multi-purpose platform. Wind turbines are the most space-efficient power-generating systems. This work proposes a barge-type VLFS (Very Large Floating Structure) with multiple wind turbines for the bays or ...

Motion Control System Design for a Barge Type Vessel Moored by Ropes

2016
These days, the important resources powering industrial societies are oil and natural gas. Because many shallow-water fields already drained, oil companies are turning their attention to resources at ever greater depths. Semi-submersible rigs and drilling ships are used in deep oceans.

Behavioral Analysis of Barge-Type Floating Wind Turbines in Wind and Wave-Excited Environments

Renewable Energies, Environment and Power Quality Journal
This article presents the results of various experimental tests conducted on small-scale floating wind turbine prototypes at the Universidad Complutense de Madrid (UCM) in the Universidad del Pais Vasco (UPV/EHU) wave tank. The study focuses on the forced dynamics of a barge-type Floating Wind Turbine (FWT) anchored to the seabed, analysing its ...

Slow Drift Forces and Motions on a Barge-Type Structure Comparing Model Tests With Calculated Results

Offshore Technology Conference, 1982
ABSTRACT Second order wave (drift forces on a barge type hydrodynamic ally compact structure are measured in a wave tank and compared with theoretical calculations. The theory used is the generally accepted method based on perturbation theory and on integration of the hydrodynamic pressure over the instantaneous ...

Structural Control Optimization in Offshore Floating Wind Turbines of the Barge Type through Evolutionary Computation

Proceedings do Congresso Brasileiro de Automática
Offshore wind turbines have the potential to transform electricity production. Floating platforms have been developed to generate profitable and efficient energy in deep waters, but still face significant challenges. This work proposes the use of evolutionary computation to optimize passive structural control techniques in floating barge-type wind ...

Weakly Nonlinear Estimation of Hydrodynamic Forces and Motions on a Barge Type Floating Body With Moonpools in Waves

Volume 2: Subsea Technology; Ocean Space Utilization
Abstract This paper describes nonlinear effects of overtopping and sloshing behaviours of water mass within a moonpool on wave exciting forces and motion responses of a barge floating body with a moonpool for offshore wind. Overtopping and sloshing like behaviours should be a problem in design of the structure.
