一种漂浮式风机叶尖气隙数值模拟方法
By calculating the aerodynamic loads, mooring system tension, and six-degree-of-freedom motion of the floating wind turbine, and combining dynamic mesh updates, the shortest distance between the lowest point of the blade disk and the free surface is calculated in real time. This solves the problem of insufficient tip air gap prediction for floating wind turbines and improves the safety assessment of the blades.

AI Technical Summary
Currently, there are few research methods for predicting the tip air gap of floating wind turbines, which is insufficient to meet the safety assessment requirements of wind turbine blades in marine environments.
By calculating the aerodynamic loads, mooring system tensions, and six-degree-of-freedom motion of a floating wind turbine under the combined action of wind, waves, and current, and combining this with dynamic deformable mesh updates, the shortest distance between the lowest point of the blade disk and the free surface is calculated in real time to obtain the tip air gap time history data.
It provides data references for the design and optimization of floating wind turbines, and improves the ability to assess the safety of blades in harsh marine environments.
