1. 1. Comparison of electricity production between semi-submersible and spar-buoy floating offshore wind turbines

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för geovetenskaper

   Author : Nermina Saracevic; [2018]
   Keywords : floating offshore wind turbine; semi-submersible; spar-buoy; six degrees of freedom; platform-rotor interaction; ASHES;

   Abstract : The paper compares electricity production between the semi-submersible and the spar-buoy floating wind turbine systems under normal, stochastic and extreme wind conditions at Utsira Nord site located on the Norwegian continental shelf in the North Sea. The analysis of complex behavior of the floating wind turbine system and the fluid-structure interaction is performed in aero-servo-hydro-elastic code ASHES. READ MORE

3. 2. Feasibility Study of a 3D CFD Solution for FSI Investigations on NREL 5MW Wind Turbine Blade

   University essay from KTH/Kraft- och värmeteknologi

   Author : Giacomo Bernardi; [2015]
   Keywords : HAWT; CFD; Aeroelasticity;

   Abstract : With the increase in length of wind turbine blades flutter is becoming a potential design constrain, hence the interest in computational tools for fluid-structure interaction studies. The general approach to this problem makes use of simplified aerodynamic computational tools. READ MORE

4. 3. Wind turbine dynamic - application to foundations

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Cyril Bailly; [2014]

5. 4. 3D Simulation of a 5MW Wind Turbine

   University essay from Blekinge Tekniska Högskola/Sektionen för ingenjörsvetenskap

   Author : Abtin Namiranian; [2011]
   Keywords : Wind turbine; Turbulence and gravity loads; Computational Fluid Dynamics; Finite Element Method; Fluid structure interaction; ANSYS ;

   Abstract : In the present work, the influence of turbulence and gravity forces on the tower and the rotor of a 5MW onshore wind turbine has been investigated. A full geometry of the turbine has been designed and simulated in a virtual wind farm and then the fluid loads are imported into the structural part by fluid structure interaction (FSI) method.
