The stability of wakes of floating wind turbines
Physics of Fluids, 2022 Floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) are subjected to platform motion induced by wind and wave loads. The oscillatory movement trigger vortex instabilities, modifying the wake structure and influencing the flow reaching downstream wind turbines. In this work, the wake of a FOWT is analyzed by means of numerical simulations and a comparison with ...

Integrated Optimization of Floating Wind Turbine Systems [PDF]
Volume 9B: Ocean Renewable Energy, 2014 The purpose of this paper is to show an exemplary methodology for the integrated conceptioning of a floating wind turbine system with focus on the spar-type hull and the wind turbine blade-pitch-to-feather controller. It is a special interest to use a standard controller, which is easily implementable, even at early design stages.
