Abstract:

Floating offshore wind turbine is the key and fundamental equipment for obtaining wind energy on deep sea. Because of its large floating base motions, floating offshore wind turbine is loaded by aerodynamic, hydrodynamic and their coupled actions with the structures, and is very complex in dynamic characteristics. Therefore, study on the dynamics plays a very important role in the design, development, operation and maintenance of floating offshore wind turbine. This paper introduced briefly the recent research progress of the dynamic simulation analysis of floating offshore wind turbine from the aspects of aerodynamics of wind turbine body, hydrodynamics of floating base and wind-wave-current-structure coupled dynamics. The results and characteristics of the current research were summarized, and the research trend in the future was shown, providing a reference for further investigation in this field.

Key words: offshore wind power, floating offshore wind turbine, aerodynamics, hydrodynamics, wind-wave-current-structure coupled dynamics, simulation analysis
