Effects of Initial Conditions on Transient Responses in Dynamic Simulation of FOWT

Journal of Ocean Engineering and Technology, 2014
The IEC standard for onshore or offshore wind turbines requires additional dummy simulations (at least 5 s) for the transient responses due to initial conditions. An increase in the dummy time causes a considerable increase in the computational cost considering multiple design spirals with several thousand design load analysis cases.

Multi-fidelity actuator-line modelling of FOWT wakes

Journal of Physics: Conference Series
Abstract Large Eddy Simulations (LES) are considered the proper tool for predicting the physics of a wind turbine wake, thereby establishing a solid foundation for investigating the interaction among floating turbines within wind farms. In this work the Actuator Line Model, implemented in the OpenFoam environment, is combined with both U-
