Abstract
Description
Technical Field
[0001] The present invention relates to the field of offshore wind power equipment, and in particular to a hydrodynamic load model of an offshore floating platform taking wave-current coupling into consideration. Background Art
[0002] With the high development and utilization of traditional energy sources such as coal, oil and natural gas, energy issues will become a serious bottleneck restricting the sustainable development of the economy. As one of the most promising alternative energy sources, the development and utilization of wind energy has received more and more attention from countries around the world. Compared with onshore wind energy, offshore wind energy has more obvious advantages. "From land to sea, from shallow to deep, from fixed foundation to floating platform" has become an inevitable trend in the construction of wind farms in the future. In the marine environment, accurate evaluation of the hydrodynamic loads acting on the floating platform is crucial to predict the dynamic response of floating offshore wind turbines. Potential flow theory and Morrison equation are widely used to evaluate the hydrodynamic loads acting on floating wind turbine platforms. Therefore, the reasonable selection of the hydrodynamic added mass and drag coefficient used in the Morrison equation is crucial to accurately predict the hydrodynamic loads on floating wind turbine platforms under the influence of wave and current coupling.
[0003] The hydrodynamic load coefficients obtained from tank tests are widely used to predict the hydrodynamic loads on offshore wind turbines. These hydrodynamic coefficient models are able to predict the wave loads acting on fixed marine structures with reasonable accuracy, but they have limitations in evaluating the hydrodynamic loads on floating wind turbines under wave-current action. The reasons can be attributed to two issues. One issue is the determination of the frequency-dependent hydrodynamic load coefficients. Studies have shown that the hydrodynamic load coefficients of a smooth cylinder subjected to oscillating flow depend on the Reynolds number and the Keulegan-Carpenter number. This highlights the importance of further studying the effect of oscillation frequency on the hydrodynamic coefficients to accurately predict the hydrodynamic effects on floating wind turbines, as these loads are closely related to the platform motion at various oscillation frequencies. Another issue is the evaluation of the effect of ocean currents on the hydrodynamic load coefficients. Since traditional hydrodynamic load models based on the model without considering the effect of ocean currents show inadequacies in predicting the hydrodynamic loads on floating wind turbines under wave-current action, the effect of ocean currents on the hydrodynamic load coefficients should be considered.
[0004] In the field of structural wind engineering, forced vibration tests are usually carried out on structural models at different wind speeds in wind tunnels to accurately evaluate aerodynamic effects by defining different vibration modes. In addition to the Reynolds number and mass ratio, the reduced wind speed is also one of the most important independent variables for determining the aerodynamic load coefficient of the structure, because the wind speed has a direct impact on the vortex shedding frequency and vortex-induced vibration. However, in the field of marine engineering, most studies on forced vibration tests of marine structures focus on still water conditions, which means that the current velocity below the mean sea level is zero. Research on ocean currents is still limited, but they are often encountered in actual marine environments. Existing studies have shown that the hydrodynamic load coefficient generated by the combined action of oscillating flow and uniform flow on a cylinder is significantly dependent on the reduced ocean current velocity, which indicates that the mechanism of the influence of ocean currents on the hydrodynamic load coefficient of floating wind turbine platforms has not yet been fully clarified.
[0005] Through physical tank tests, the dependence of the current velocity, KC number and Reynolds number on the hydrodynamic load coefficient of marine structures can be established. Compared with physical model tests, numerical forced vibration tests are more cost-effective. In addition, the limitations of experimental equipment can be overcome by accurate and effective numerical methods, making it easier to conduct forced vibration tests in uniform flow. One of the most widely used numerical methods is computational fluid dynamics (CFD), which can accurately evaluate motion-induced and current-induced hydrodynamic effects through the finite volume method and various turbulence models. Although numerical forced vibration tests of simple marine structures considering uniform flow have been studied using CFD methods, the research on the hydrodynamic load coefficient of floating wind platforms is still limited. Given the complexity of the structure of semi-submersible wind platforms, such as the OC4 DeepCwind platform, their hydrodynamic load coefficients may be more sensitive to the current velocity, KC number and Reynolds number, and therefore require further attention.
