Abstract

As the siting of wind turbines increasingly transitions from shallow water to offshore deep-water locations, improving the platform stability of floating offshore wind turbines is becoming a growing concern. By coupling a porous shell commonly used in traditional marine structures, with a FOWT (floating wind turbine platform), a new spar-buoy with a porous shell was designed. A numerical model investigating the coupling effect of the aero-hydro-mooring system is developed, and the results of the motion response are compared with the OC3-Hywind spar. The motion response of the two platforms was simulated in the time-domain with the incident wave period varied in the range of 5~22 s. The exciting wave force with added mass and radiation damping of the spar with the porous shell is compared with the OC3-Hywind spar. The results demonstrate that the motion response amplitude of the spar with the porous shell decreases in all three main motion freedoms (i.e., surge, heave and pitch, etc.), among which the heave motions are most significantly attenuated. The study shows that the coupling of porous shells with a floating platform to achieve the reduced motion responses is feasible and can be an innovative structure for the development of deep-sea offshore floating wind turbines.
