Various configurations of arrays of equidistant rectangular plates are considered and the current-induced pressure and velocity distribution, and the hydrodynamic forces on the individual plates are computed and compared with empirical relations. It is found that the current-induced force on the leading plate in the array is substantially different from those on the downstream plates, which experience negative forces, due to the change of the flow field. In three parametric studies, the effect of plate spacing, the number of plates and the relative water depth on the current-induced forces is investigated. It is shown that the relative size of the plates, and the number of plates in an array play significant role on the current-induced loads. Finally, the relative direction of the plates and the incoming flow is changed and its effect on the hydrodynamic forces on the plates is studied in a three-dimensional computational tank. The current loads on an oriented set of plates is shown to be remarkably different, when compared with those perpendicular to the current direction. It is concluded that the current-induced loads on an array of plates cannot be estimated by empirical relations, and specific computations, similar to those shown here, or laboratory experiments are required to investigate the current loads.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"46480798","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Following the available experimental investigations, a numerical wave tank (NWT) was accordingly set up based on OpenFOAM source packets. The experimental flap-type wave-maker motion was employed directly to reproduce a specific freak wave. The effects of the mesh scheme on freak wave modeling were investigated in depth. Reasonable agreements were achieved between the numerical and experimental results. The wavelet transform method was applied to demonstrate the energy structures of freak wave trains. Special attention was paid to the particle velocities as well as the dynamic pressure. The results showed that insufficient mesh resolutions could probably result in energy dissipations and phase errors of high-frequency wave components during wave propagations, which in turn lead to shifts in the focal positions of freak waves. The particle velocities near the wave crest are extremely large, indicating possible severe wave breaking and impact loads. The theoretical values of similar-shape regular waves could considerably underestimate the particle velocities of freak waves.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-05-04","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"45224929","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The free surface elevation of the confined water inside the moonpool for the piston mode frequencies is studied independently for the forward, central, and aft moonpools, showing a strong dependence on location, draft, and incident wave frequency. The relative response is largely magnified for wave frequencies around the resonant range. It is observed that the free surface response amplitude is significantly higher in the forward moonpool location, and the results are in well comparison with experiments performed in the towing tank. The variation of dynamic pressure and its influence on the moonpool responses is investigated. The dynamic pressure and its influence on the moonpool responses is investigated to understand the position-specific fluctuations, which showed the presence of harmonics. The phase difference between the water column oscillations within the moonpool and the propagating wave in the domain depends on the its position. Finally, the effect of the moonpool in modifying the pressure field is studied by comparison with a vessel without moonpool for a common incident wave frequency.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-28","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"47745051","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The coefficients are assessed for a nearly two-dimensional test setup. The tests are performed as forced oscillations at various amplitudes and periods, representing the forces on the module lowered through the water column. The importance of each of the main components of the subsea modules – mudmat, protection roof and process equipment of different shapes inside the modules are studied at fully submerged condition. Results for the module elements, generic contents and different combinations of these elements are presented. For the tested modules, damping is generally the dominating hydrodynamic force. However, the presence of the content inside the modules will generally increase the importance of added mass. Estimation of the hydrodynamic coefficients by summation of the coefficients for the individual structure elements generally overestimates the damping, compared to the coefficients measured for the complete modules. For added mass, estimation based on summation gives generally good results.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-04-11","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"49615614","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

A wave energy converter (WEC) should be designed to maximize the energy absorbed while ensuring the operating wave condition does not exceed the failure limits of the device itself. Therefore, the loads endured by the support structure are a design constraint for the system. Furthermore, the WEC should be adaptable to different sea states. This work uses a WEC-Sim model of a variable-geometry oscillating wave energy converter (VGOSWEC) mounted on a support structure simulated under different wave scenarios. A VGOSWEC resembles a paddle pitching about a fixed hinge perpendicular to the incoming wave fronts. The geometry of the VGOSWEC is varied by opening a series of controllable flaps on the pitching paddle when the structure experiences threshold loads. It is hypothesized that opening the flaps should result in load shedding at the base of the support structure by reducing the moments about the hinge axis. This work compares the hydrodynamic coefficients, natural periods, and response amplitude operators from completely closed to completely open configurations of the controllable flaps. This work shows that the completely open configuration can reduce the pitch and surge loads on the base of the support structure by as much as 80%. Increased loads at the structure’s natural period can be mitigated by an axial power take-off damping acting as an additional design parameter to control the loads at the WEC’s support structure.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-04-05","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135956288","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Sea spray icing rates have mostly been investigated and given as a function of general metocean parameters. The existing models suffer from lack of experimental data. More experimental data is required for better prediction models and understanding of the icing process. This paper presents results from a comprehensive cold laboratory study of the dependence and trends of sea spray icing rates related to 8 parameters. Experiments were performed simulating sea spray from a nozzle towards a vertical surface in freezing environment. This study presents 20 unique tests structured into 8 experiments, each of which focuses on change in icing rates due to one independent variable. Results showed that the sea spray rates dependence of the investigated parameters comply with existing knowledge, however preliminary analysis points out various unintentional covariates for most experiments which calls for further investigations. This is the greatest number of variables tested in one set of experiments to date and serve as valuable sea spray icing data experimental data – a limitation for the evaluation of previous models that pointed out to the lack of enough icing measurements in this field of research.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44495958","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The FOWT studied in this work is the 15 MW reference turbine recently released by the International Energy Agency. The 15 MW turbine is supported on the UMaine Volturn US-S semi-submersible platform which is stationed using catenary mooring lines. As the mooring configuration greatly affects the response of FOWT, two different mooring configurations namely non-redundant (3-line) and redundant (6-line) systems are studied and compared. The coupled multi-body dynamic system is solved using an open-source code, OpenFAST. When simulating the mooring line failure, both the operating and extreme loading conditions are considered. Failure of one mooring is considered at a time. The response of the coupled system due to breakage of the mooring indicate high displacements in surge and sway directions in comparison to the intact system especially for the nonredundant mooring system. Furthermore, failure in mooring leads to change in the platform yaw angle, which in turn results in rotor misalignment with respect to the incoming wind. Also increased tension in the other intact mooring lines is observed. The findings from this study will be helpful in accidental limit state design and preventing failure of similar large wind turbines mounted on semi-submersible platforms. In addition, insights on using non-redundant and redundant mooring configuration for such large structures with respect to extreme and accidental loading is also discussed.","PeriodicalId":50106,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Offshore Mechanics and Arctic Engineering-Transactions of the Asme","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":1.6,"publicationDate":"2023-03-20","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"44950006","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":4,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
