Floating air-cushion supporting platform

Abstract

The invention provides a floating air cushion support platform, which is mainly composed of a platform main body, a truss and ballast. The platform main body includes a buoyancy chamber, an air chamber, an air chamber partition, a central well and a damping apron. Below the platform, the main body of the platform and the ballast are connected by trusses, and the waterline is inside the main body of the platform. The buoyancy chamber provides the buoyancy required by the system, and increases the water surface area through the buoyancy chamber; the air chamber partition divides the air chamber into multiple independent units, and increases the section moment of inertia of the air chamber through the air chamber partition; the damping apron The viscous damping of the platform is increased; the ballast arranged below can lower the center of gravity of the system, and can also act as a heave plate, reducing the heave response of the system. Relying on the barge-type support platform, this platform has simple structure, convenient construction and low cost. By introducing the design of air cushion, it solves the problem of large motion response of ordinary barge-type floating structures under the action of waves.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to a floating air cushion support platform, which belongs to the field of marine engineering. Background technique [0002] Wind power generation technology has a long history. At first, humans obtained wind energy by fixing wind turbines on land. In recent decades, onshore wind resources have become one of the fastest growing green energy sources. According to the 2013 wind power statistics, between 2009 and 2013, global wind power increased by about 200GW. The rapid development of wind power energy is mainly reflected in the increase in the number of wind turbines, the expansion of the single unit capacity of wind turbines, and the construction of large-scale wind farms. However, when onshore wind power is booming, we are also aware that under the influence of visual and noise pollution caused by the operation of large wind farms, instability of onshore wind resources, and limited onshore space, the Further development and ut...
