Performance is assessed by running hydrodynamic and structural response simulations and calculating the power absorption of the WEC and fatigue damage in the mooring lines from the output data. The baseline model of the WEC input to the simulation is modelled after the WaveEL 3.0 device, designed by Waves4Power and installed in Runde, Norway. Simulations are run for single buoy and small array configurations, varying environmental conditions, mooring system, and WEC buoy shaft length. Environmental conditions are chosen to reflect locations studied as potential future installation sites. Select configurations are further analyzed through an analysis of LCOE and LCA. The results show that optimal mooring line geometry depends on water depth, and that optimal shaft length depends on the average sea conditions at the location. The array simulations show that small WEC separating distances will limit the mooring line length, which will result in lower power absorption and lower fatigue lives in the mooring lines. The LCOE shows that the four-buoy array configuration is the most profitable, and both the LCOE and LCA show that the main process contribution to climate change and the total product cost is the manufacturing of the WEC buoy itself. The research in this study demonstrates the importance of using simulations to make effective WEC design choices for a given environment.","PeriodicalId":306681,"journal":{"name":"Volume 10: Ocean Renewable Energy","volume":"3 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"123637928","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The distinctive feature of this paper is the use of frequency based non-linear harmonic method which is an efficient computational method to study unsteady periodic flow and aeroleasticity of turbomachinery applications, and extensive validation of the non-linear harmonic method against conventional time domain solution methods. This paper is an extension of the authors’ previous work which analysed the aerodynamics of the MEXICO (Model Rotor Experiments In Controlled Conditions) Experiment wind turbine. Aeromechanical analysis of the MEXICO-Experiment wind turbine as well as 1.5 MW wind turbine are conducted in this study. Both conventional time domain solution method and non-linear harmonic method are used, and compared to each other for validation and verification of the non-liner harmonic method. Using the same numerical set-up for each method demonstrates the differences and capabilities of each solution method, and their computational expenses. Finally, this paper concludes with how the aeromechanical analysis of large wind turbines can be performed effectively and efficiently using the non-linear harmonic method.","PeriodicalId":306681,"journal":{"name":"Volume 10: Ocean Renewable Energy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"129082884","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The directionality effects of short-term wind/wave loads had been discussed in previous studies, which are, however, insufficient to make a full understanding of the directionality impacts. In our study, based on a 25-year met-ocean database, long-term analysis is carried out by means of an efficient frequency-domain model with eight degrees of freedom. The nonlinear quantities such as aerodynamic loads, aerodynamic damping and mooring stiffness are derived from the time-domain simulation tool FAST, serving as a preprocessing database for the frequency-domain model. A case study is carried out by comparing the long-term responses of a Y-shape semi-submersible floating wind turbine in four mounting orientations. Significant differences can be seen. The platform mounted in the most unfavorable orientation tends to suffer from larger peak nacelle acceleration, which would increase the loads and cause higher tower base fatigue damage. These findings highlight the importance of platform mounting orientations and can serve as a basis for the installation of semi-submersible floating wind turbines.","PeriodicalId":306681,"journal":{"name":"Volume 10: Ocean Renewable Energy","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130900557","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Specifically, the paper proposes the implementation of a genetic algorithm for designing a U-OWC exposed to the typical sea states available in the Mediterranean Sea. The first challenge encountered in this problem is the efficient calculation of the U-OWC hydrodynamic parameters. The second challenge relates to the fact that the U-OWC dynamics is governed by two coupled nonlinear ordinary differential equations with no closed-form solution. For reducing the computational cost, the genetic algorithm is combined with a semi-analytical approach used for determining the U-OWC hydrodynamic parameters and with a statistical linearization based approximate solution of the equations governing the U-OWC dynamics. Such a procedure allows estimating efficiently, albeit approximately, the power output of the system.\u0000 Numerical results compare a design based on a conventional “design sea state” vis-à-vis a design based on a “design wave climate”. For this purpose, the case study of the Roccella Jonica marina (Reggio Calabria, Italy) is considered, as relevant wave data are available to characterize the most energetic seas as well as depicting the global wave climate available at that location. The numerical results highlight the fact that an optimization conducted on the basis of a design sea state does not lead to an optimal design in a wave climate.","PeriodicalId":306681,"journal":{"name":"Volume 10: Ocean Renewable Energy","volume":"14 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2019-11-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127000250","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
