文摘A novel semi-submersible platform is proposed for 5 MW wind turbines.This concept focuses on an integrated system formed by combining porous shells with a semi-submersible platform.A coupled aerodynamic–hydrodynamic–mooring analysis of the new system is performed.The motion responses of the novel platform system and the traditional platform are compared.The differences in hydrodynamic performance between the two platforms are also evaluated.The influence of the geometric parameters(porosity,diameter,and wall thickness)of porous shells on the motion response behavior of the new system is studied.Overall,the new semi-submersible platform exhibits superior stability in terms of pitch and heave degrees of freedom,demonstrating minimal effects on the motion response in the surge degree of freedom.
