Abstract

Efficient and accurate simulation of the motion response of floating wind turbine (FOWT) is critical for their design and operation. This study employed the vortex lattice method (VLM) to investigate and validate the aerodynamic performance of FOWT. By integrating the VLM with a potential flow hydrodynamic model, a coupled simulation framework was developed to comprehensively analyze floating platform fluid dynamics, mooring system dynamics, and wind turbine aerodynamic responses. The results confirm the reliability and accuracy of this method. Through simulation, key unsteady aerodynamic and hydrodynamic responses of the floating platform, such as motions of six degree-of-freedoms (DOFs) and mooring tension under various wave conditions and wind forces, were explored and analyzed. The findings highlight the significant potential and promising prospects of potential flow aerodynamic methods, such as VLM, in advancing wind turbine research and design.

基于涡格气动模型的海上浮式风力机动力响应研究

高效、准确地模拟浮式风力发电机组的运动响应对其设计和运行至关重要。本文采用涡点阵法（VLM）对FOWT的气动性能进行了研究和验证。通过将VLM与势流水动力模型相结合，建立了一个耦合仿真框架，综合分析浮式平台流体动力学、系泊系统动力学和风力机气动响应。结果证实了该方法的可靠性和准确性。通过仿真，探索和分析了浮动平台在各种波浪条件和风力作用下的六自由度运动和系泊张力等关键非定常气动和水动力响应。这些发现突出了势流气动方法（如VLM）在推进风力涡轮机研究和设计方面的巨大潜力和前景。
