Turbine Model

As the output power of wind turbine increasingly gets larger, the structural flexibility of elastic bodies, such as rotor blades and tower, gets more significant owing to larger structural size. In that case, the dynamic interaction between these flexible bodies become more profound and may significantly impact the dynamic response of the whole wind turbine. In this study, the integrated model of a 5-MW wind turbine is developed based on the finite element simulations so as to carry out dynamic response analysis under random wind load, in terms of both time history and frequency spectrum, considering the interactions between the flexible bodies. And, the load evolution along its transmitting route and mechanical energy distribution during the dynamic response are examined. And, the influence of the stiffness and motion of the supporting tower on the integrated system is discussed. The basic dynamic characteristics and responses of 3 models, i.e. the integrated wind turbine model, a simplified turbine model (blades, hub and nacelle are simplified as lumped masses) and a rigid supported blade, are examined, and their results are compared in both time and frequency domains. Based on our numerical simulations, the dynamic coupling mechanism are explained in terms of the load transmission and energy consumption. It is found that the dynamic interaction between flexible bodies is profound for wind turbine with large structural size, e.g. the load and displacement of the tower top gets around 15% larger mainly due to the elastic deformation and dynamic behaviors (called inertial-elastic effect here) of the flexible blade; On the other hand, the elastic deformation may additionally consume around 10% energy (called energy-consuming effect) coming from external wind load and consequently decreases the displacement of the tower. In other words, there is a competition between the energy-consuming effect and inertial-elastic effect of the flexible blade on the overall dynamic response of the wind turbine. And similarly, the displacement of the blade gets up to 20% larger because the elastic-dynamic behaviors of the tower principally provides a elastic and moving support which can significantly change the natural mode shape of the integrated wind turbine and decrease the natural frequency of the rotor blade.

Floating Wind Turbine

Recently, wind turbine has been developed from onshore area to offshore area because of more powerful available wind energy in ocean area and more distant and less harmful noise coming from turbine. As it is approaching toward deeper water depth, the dynamic response of the large floating wind turbine experiencing various environmental loads becomes more challenge. For examples, as the structural size gets larger, the dynamic interaction between the flexible bodies such as blades, tower and catenary mooring-lines become more profound, and the dynamic behaviors such as structural inertia and hydrodynamic force of the mooring-line get more obvious. In this paper, the dynamic response of a 5MW floating wind turbine undergoing different ocean waves is examined by our FEM approach in which the dynamic behaviors of the catenary mooring-line are involved and the integrated system including flexible multi-bodies such as blades, tower, spar platform and catenaries can be considered. Firstly, the nonlinear dynamic model of the integrated wind turbine is developed. Different from the traditional static restoring force, the dynamic restoring force is analyzed based on our 3d curved flexible beam approach where the structural curvature changes with its spatial position and the time in terms of vector equations. And, the modified finite element simulation is used to model a flexible and moving catenary of which the hydrodynamic load depending on the mooring-line’s motion is considered. Then, the nonlinear dynamic governing equations is numerically solved by using Newmark-Beta method. Based on our numerical simulations, the influences of the dynamic behaviors of the catenary mooring-line on its restoring performance are presented. The dynamic responses of the floating wind turbine, e.g. the displacement of the spar and top tower and the dynamic tension of the catenary, undergoing various ocean waves, are examined. The dynamic coupling between different spar motions, i.e. surge and pitch, are discussed too. Our numerical results show: the dynamic behaviors of mooring-line may significantly increase the top tension, particularly, the peak-trough tension gap of snap tension may be more than 9 times larger than the quasi-static result. When the wave frequency is much higher than the system, the dynamic effects of the mooring system will accelerate the decay of transient items of the dynamic response; when the wave frequency and the system frequency are close to each other, the displacement of the spar significantly reduces by around 26%. Under regular wave condition, the coupling between the surge and pitch motions are not obvious; but under extreme condition, pitch motion may get about 20% smaller than that without consideration of the coupling between the surge and pitch motions.

A 7.8m/s vertical drop simulate of a full composite fuselage section was conducted with energy-absorbing floor to evaluate the crashworthiness features of the fuselage section and to predict its dynamic response to dummies in future. The 1.52m diameter fuselage section consists of a high strength upper fuselage frame, one stiff structural floor and an energy-absorbing subfloor constructed of Rohacell foam blocks. The experimental data from literature [6] were analyzed and correlated with predictions from an impact simulation developed using the nonlinear explicit transient dynamic computer code MSC.Dytran. The simulated average acceleration did not exceed 13g, by contrast with experimental results, whose relative error is less than 11%. The numerical simulation results agree with experiments well.

Tests of bird strike have been carried out on plate made from LY-12 Aluminium. The test was down with the projectile impacting the target perpendicularly at velocity of 40m/s, 80m/s, 120m/s respectively. The displacement-time history curves and strain-time history curves of on LY-12 Aluminium plate were measured. The good agreement of the results between two specimens in one group indicated that the results tested in the presnet paper are reliable. The dynamic response of the plate and damage modes of the bird influenced by striking velocity were analyzed. The peak value of the displacement linear enlarged with the increasing of the striking velocity. The test results in the present paper provided valuable data for aircraft design impacted by bird, and also provided abundant test datas for the numerical simulation model applied in bird striking.

In this paper, dynamic response of a Floating Offshore Wind Turbine (FOWT) with spar-type floating foundation at power generation is presented. The FOWT mounts a 100kW wind turbine of down-wind type, with the rotor’s diameter of 22m and a hub-height of 23.3m. The floating foundation consists of PC-steel hybrid spar. The upper part is made of steel whereas the lower part made of prestressed concrete segments. The FOWT was installed at the site about 1km offshore from Kabashima Island, Goto city, Nagasaki prefecture on June 11th, 2012. Since then, the field measurement had been made until its removal in June 2013. In this paper, the dynamic behavior during the power generation is presented, where the comparison with the numerical simulation by aero-hydro-servo-mooring dynamics coupled program is made.
