In the following detailed description, numerous specific details are set forth in order to provide a thorough understanding of the present application. However, it will be apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art that the present application can be practiced without some or all of these specific details. The description of the embodiments is merely illustrative of the present application and is not intended to limit the present application, as is apparent to one of ordinary skill in the art. In the drawings and description, well-known structures and techniques have not been shown or described in detail in order not to obscure the application. Also, in the interest of clarity, not all aspects of the application have been shown or described. Furthermore, features, structures or characteristics described below can be combined in any suitable manner in one or more embodiments.
[0033] The orientation words appearing in the following description are the directions shown in the drawings, and do not limit the specific structure of the mooring system and the wind turbine generator set of the present application. In the description of the present application, it should be noted that, unless otherwise explicitly specified and limited, the terms "mounting" and "connection" should be understood broadly, for example, can be fixed connection, can also be detachable connection, or integrally connected; can be directly connected, or indirectly connected. For those of ordinary skill in the art, the specific meaning of the above terms in the present application can be understood according to the specific circumstances.
[0034] Please refer to Figure 1 and Figure 2As shown, one embodiment of the wind turbine provided by the present application includes a floating foundation 200 and a wind turbine body 300. The wind turbine body 300 includes a tower 301, a nacelle 302, a generator 303 and an impeller 304. The tower 301 is connected to the floating foundation 200. The nacelle 302 is arranged at the top end of the tower 301. The generator 303 is arranged in the nacelle 302. In some examples, the generator 303 can be located outside the nacelle 302. Of course, in some examples, the generator 303 can also be located inside the nacelle 302. The impeller 304 includes a hub 304a and a plurality of blades 304b connected to the hub 304a. The impeller 304 is connected to the rotor of the generator 303 through the hub 304a, thereby driving the rotor to rotate relative to the stator to achieve the power generation requirement of the wind turbine. The floating foundation 200 floats in seawater. In order to limit the movement range thereof, the wind turbine further includes a mooring system 100. The floating foundation 200 is fixed to the seabed 400 through the mooring system 100, thereby achieving the constraint of a certain movement range.
[0035] At present, the floating wind turbine in China mainly concentrates in shallow sea areas with a water depth of about 50 m. With the increasing power of the wind turbine, the bearing capacity requirement of the mooring system 100 is higher and higher. Since the catenary mooring system composed of anchor chains and steel wire ropes has too large rigidity, the elastic movement space of the platform is insufficient, and the platform is easily subjected to excessive wave impact load and fails. Therefore, a rope with low rigidity characteristics needs to be applied to shallow water mooring. After evaluation, a 16 MW floating wind turbine needs a mooring radius of 20 d in a water depth d = 40 m environment. By using the low rigidity characteristics of the cable, the horizontal offset of the platform under extreme conditions can reach a distance of 1 d. When the platform moves towards the anchor point, due to the buoyancy of the floating structure, the cable can be pulled out of the water surface, which exists the problems of ultraviolet radiation, acceleration of fiber aging, reduction of service life of the fiber rope and collision of ships. At the same time, in the shallow water environment, the attachment of marine organisms can increase the weight of the cable, so that the mooring section of the cable appears in a suspended state, and in severe cases, it can contact the seabed, causing the mooring system 100 to fail.
[0036] That is, the mooring system 100 in the related art is prone to the problems of floating out of the water surface and / or contacting the seabed. When it floats out of the water surface, there are problems of ultraviolet radiation, acceleration of aging, reduction of service life of the mooring system 100 and collision of ships. Under the influence of marine organisms, the mooring system 100 as a whole appears in a suspended state, and in severe cases, it can mostly contact the seabed, causing the mooring to fail and affecting the reliability of the mooring system 100.
[0037] Based on this, one embodiment of the present application provides a new mooring system 100, which can be used in the wind turbine generator provided in the above embodiments, and can improve the reliability of the mooring system 100 and the wind turbine generator.

Meanwhile, the arrangement of the first weight 12 can improve the pretension of the mooring system 100 and reduce the horizontal deviation of the floating foundation 200.
