A brief discussion on offshore wind turbine hydrodynamics problem

Zhi-teng Gao et al.

Summary: Recently, offshore wind energy has gained attention worldwide and has seen rapid growth with support from both industry and government. Research on efficiency and safety issues related to offshore wind turbines, particularly in the field of hydrodynamics, has received significant attention. This is because hydrodynamics is not only fundamental to ocean engineering, but also shares similarities with low-speed aerodynamics, which is key to wind turbine rotor performance.

WCSPH simulation of the forced response of an attenuator oscillating water column wave energy converter

Kaveh Soleimani et al.

Summary: In this study, a weakly compressible smoothed particle hydrodynamics (WCSPH) model was used to simulate the forced piston motion of water inside a fixed oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter. The model results were validated using experimental data, and a good correspondence was found between the two.

On the energy conversion characteristics of a top-mounted pitching absorber by using smoothed particle hydrodynamics

Xiaobo Zheng et al.

Summary: The study introduces the use of smoothed particle hydrodynamics (SPH) to solve the energy conversion prediction issues of top-mounted pitching point absorbers. Validation experiments show that the SPH method is effective in predicting absorbed power and capture width ratio behavior with wave period, providing valuable insights for optimized device design and site selection.

A synthesis of feasible control methods for floating offshore wind turbine system dynamics

Kamran Ali Shah et al.

Summary: Over the past decade, offshore wind energy development has shifted towards deeper waters, leading to the use of floating offshore wind turbines instead of traditional bottom-fixed turbines. However, the high cost of floating offshore wind turbines can be attributed to the inadequate adaptation of system dynamics control methods, affecting performance and reliability. Various control methods are systematically analyzed, with emphasis on wind and wave forecasting, to improve power maximization, regulation, and load mitigation in floating offshore wind turbine systems.

Nonlinear hydrodynamic characteristics of multi-body platform system

Xiudi Ren et al.

Summary: With the advancement of technology, offshore platforms are getting larger and more complex; development of oil and gas fields in deep-water regions often require multiple adjacent platforms to perform more complex functions; this paper investigates the dynamic responses of a system comprising a Tension Leg Platform (TLP) and a tender assisted drilling (TAD) platform with a flexible connection between them, emphasizing the effects of the connection on the system.
