Floating Wind Turbines [PDF]

open access: yesMechanical Engineering, 2010
This article discusses the functioning of floating wind turbines. The engineering requirements for the design of floating offshore wind turbines are extensive. Wind turbine design tools usually consist of an aerodynamic model (for flow around the blades) coupled with a structural code.

Study on characteristics of mooring system of a new floating offshore wind turbine in shallow water by experiment

open access: yesFrontiers in Energy Research, 2023
At present, researches on floating offshore wind turbine are mainly focused on deep water areas beyond 50 m, and less research has been conducted for shallow water. Considering that the floating fan still has many application values in 30 m–50 m area, it

Integrated Optimization of Floating Wind Turbine Systems [PDF]

open access: yesVolume 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.
