“…A turbine based on a jack-up platform was presented by Dymarski [1], and a design based on a tension leg platform was described by Żywicki [2]. In deeper waters, installations based on spar-type platforms are more often used [3,4].…”

In this project, an innovative wind turbine was designed for a floating plant. A large Savonius rotor was replaced with a double-rotor wind turbine implemented as a horizontal-axis turbine. This double rotor was positioned on the tip of a thrust plate and fixed to the deck of a catamaran. Simple 2D numerical simulations were performed to confirm the effectiveness of the concept. An analysis of the floating system configuration was carried out, and the loads and stresses on the system components were verified. Next, floating supports with appropriate sizes were selected to counteract the forces on the wind turbine system. Finally, an anchoring system with full rotational freedom was selected for the floating platform. The present work was conducted as part of a Master’s thesis.

“…Dymarski et al presented the results of selected works related to the wider subject of the research which concerns design and technology of construction, towing, and settlement on the seabed, or anchoring, of supporting structures for offshore wind farms [14]. Ciba et al presented a design of a floating platform for offshore wind turbines which is a modification of the Spar design and consists of three variable section columns connected to each other by a ballast tank in the lower part of the platform [15].…”

The aim of this work is to study the influence of chamfered perforation and chamfering on the heave and pitch motion of a single floating wind power platform with an anti-heave device. Firstly, the hydrodynamic performance of a single floating body with different chamfers, or without perforation, is calculated and analysed. Secondly, the motion of a model without perforation and with 35° chamfered perforation is captured and studied in a towing tank. The results show that when the wave height is large and the period is small, the perforated device has a certain effect. When the wave height and period are small, the pitch suppression effect of chamfered perforation is more obvious than that of non-chamfered perforation. When the period and wave height are large, the heave suppression effect of non-chamfered perforation is better than that of chamfered perforation. In experimental research, the perforated floating body has a certain effect on restraining the heave and pitch of a floating body under most working conditions, and the effect of restraining the pitch is obviously better than that of restraining the heave.
