Effect of Heave Plates on the Wave Motion of a Flexible Multicolumn FOWT

Abstract: Three models with different footing types were used to clarify the effect of heave plates on the hydrodynamic behavior of the elastic response of a flexible multicolumn floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT). The models were tested under regular waves, whose added mass, damping, and motion response results were compared with numerical simulations by NK-UTWind and WAMIT codes. As a whole, the attachment of heave plates was responsible for increasing the added mass and damping levels, consequently modifying the R… Show more

“…Further, several studies have been conducted on spar platforms that use heave plates to reduce the heave response by increasing added mass and heave damping [19][20][21]. The hydrodynamic effects of heave plates which are usually attached at the bottom of the platform to reduce heave motion have been researched in various studies [22][23][24][25]. However, there are limited studies to counter the large wind heeling moment, and to reduce the pitching motion of the spar platform.…”
