An intelligently regulated floating breakwater with a tuning tank

Abstract

The invention discloses an intelligently regulated floating breakwater with a tuning water tank. By adjusting the natural frequency of the fluid inside the floating body, it can be tuned with the wave frequency to provide restoring force for the breakwater, so that the breakwater can operate under different wave frequencies. Both can obtain the best anti-vibration effect, and overcome the defect of single vibration-absorbing frequency band of traditional floating breakwaters. Its intelligent anti-wave plate and anti-sway plate greatly improve the stability of the structure and facilitate loading and unloading. The sloshing wave can be used to provide energy for its own control system without external energy input, which reduces regular maintenance costs. The wave energy conversion system composed of rotating blades at the bottom not only reduces the pitch of the floating body and the intensity of wave energy projection, but also converts wave energy into electrical energy, making full use of renewable energy.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention relates to the technical field of marine engineering, in particular to an intelligently regulated floating breakwater with a tuning water tank. Background technique [0002] With the development of coastal resources, breakwaters have gradually become important port and offshore engineering structures. The main function is to reduce the impact of waves on the inner harbor and protect the safety of ship loading and unloading operations and port construction. Traditional bottom-mounted breakwaters have high construction costs, long construction periods, and low wave-proof performance in waters with complex terrain and large water depths, while floating breakwaters are cheap to build and can be applied to waters with weak foundations and large tidal ranges. And it does not affect the self-purification ability of the water area. Therefore, the floating breakwater, which is easy to load and unload, environmentally friendly and energy-saving, h...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] However, the stability of the traditional floating breakwater is poor, which reduces the performance of the floating breakwater and affects the mooring system; the control effect of the oscillating wave in the lower part of the breakwater is poor; the hazards of waves on the structure are not considered

Ocean waves have a wide frequency spectrum. Existing floating breakwaters cannot adjust themselves to wave parameters, so as to achieve maximum anti-vibration control and wave dissipation effects under conditions of waves of different frequencies and wave heights.
