Floating wind turbine concepts studied at CeSOS
TLPSemi-submersibleSpar
We need to understand floating wind turbine behavior so that we can bring the cost down

Tension Leg Platform (TLP)
• Stability from tension legs,
implying motions as an inverted pendulum
• Small motions (+)• Flexible w.r.t. water depth (+)• Smaller steel weight (+)• Small footprint area on seabed (+)• Challenging installation (-)

TLPWT Design
MIT-NREL TLPWT (Matha, 2009)Shimada, 2011 Moon, 2010Botta, 2009
• Displacement – Increases cost– Decreases risk of slack
• Pontoon radius– Increases stability– Increases hull loads
• Tendons

Control system
• Serves to – regulate rotor rotation
speed– regulate power output– protect structure
• Actions– Change generator torque– Change blade pitch

What happens if one blade stops pitching?
Shut down turbine quickly
Fault occurs
Continue operating with faulted blade

Hydrodynamics
• Large volume structures: potential flow– First order– Second order sum-frequency
• Slender structures: Morison’s equation
• Tension-moored structures: ringing forces (3rd order)

Concluding remarks
• TLP wind turbines present complex, unanswered design and analysis challenges
• Numerical simulations require coupled aero-hydro-servo-elastic tools and expertise
• A wide variety of environmental and operational conditions must be considered
• In our studies of floating wind turbines at CeSOS we hope to provide insights that can help inform designers and regulatory bodies

TLPWT + 3 Point Absorbers• Preliminary results indicate no
significant change in power output for WEC or WT by combining
• Reduced tendon tension variation (5-10%) and motions

Simo-Riflex-AeroDyn
• Nonlinear time domain coupled code (Riflex: MARINTEK)
• Single structural solver• Aerodynamic forces via DLL• Advanced hydrodynamics
(Morison, 1st and 2nd order potential, ringing) (SIMO: MARINTEK)
• Control code (java) for normal operation and fault conditions
• Good agreement with HAWC2 (land-based and spar, including fault)
SIMO: wave forces
Java: control
AeroDyn: aerodynamic forces
