1. 1. The Paradigm Shift for Substations Technology within Wind Power Applications from Onshore to Floating

   University essay from KTH/Skolan för elektroteknik och datavetenskap (EECS)

   Author : Ahmad Talaat Hifzy; [2023]
   Keywords : Floating; offshore; substation; transformer; GIS; equipment; high-voltage; fatigue; Flytande; havsbaserad; station; transformator; GIS; utrustning; högspänning; utmattning;

   Abstract : Floating wind turbines are attracting more attention as more than three-quarters of the total offshore technical potential is located in deep water, leading to a growing trend in floating wind farm projects. Consequently, it becomes necessary to develop Floating Offshore Substation (FOSS) to step up voltage and efficiently transmit power to the shore with minimal losses. READ MORE

3. 2. 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

4. 3. Offshore Floating Platforms : Analysis of a solution for motion mitigation

   University essay from KTH/Bro- och stålbyggnad

   Author : Alberto Rodriguez Marijuan; [2017]
   Keywords : Offshore Wind; floating platform; wave tank test; hydrodynamic pressure; structural; hydrodynamic load; heave plate.;

   Abstract : Recent events regarding energy policies throughout the globe and advances in technology are making offshore wind farms become a reality. Most offshore wind farms are still, however, built close to land masses, and need to be rigidly attached to the seabed in one way or another. READ MORE

5. 4. Optimal Placement of FloatingTwo-Turbine Foundations in Offshore Wind Farms

   University essay from KTH/Energiteknik

   Author : Lovisa Gelotte; Alexandra Lundevall Nilsson; [2017]
   Keywords : Wind Power; Floating; Two-Turbine Platform; Optimization; AEP; WFLO; Vindkraft; Flytande vindkraft; Tvåturbinsplattform; Optimering; Elproduktion;

   Abstract : This project is conducted in cooperation with Hexicon AB, which is a Swedish design and engineering company developing floating two-turbine platforms for offshore wind power.The study aims to investigate the optimal placement of Hexicon AB’s platforms in an offshore wind farm with respect to the Annual Energy Production (AEP).

6. 5. Future offshore wind farm construction and maintenance strategies

   University essay from Lunds universitet/Industriell elektroteknik och automation

   Author : Jesper Strid; [2017]
   Keywords : Technology and Engineering;

   Abstract : With the wind farms moving further from shore, new challenges arise. Technicians must visit the turbines almost daily because of the constant need for maintenance. But when the transport time from shore to the wind farm turns into hours is some kind of permanent accommodation required at the farm for the technicians to live on. READ MORE
