Based on the Rayleigh method and Lagrange’s Equation, this study establishes a simple formula for the analysis of system fundamental frequency in the preliminary design of an offshore wind turbine with a monopile foundation. This method takes into consideration the variation of cross-section geometry of the wind turbine tower along its length, with the inertia moment and distributed mass both changing with diameter. Also the rotational flexibility of the monopile foundation is mainly considered. The rigid pile and elastic middle long pile are calculated separately. The method is validated against both FEM analysis cases and field measurements, showing good agreement. The method is then used in a parametric study, showing that the tower length Lt, tower base diameter d0, tower wall thickness δt, pile diameter db and pile length Lb are the major factors influencing the fundamental frequency of the offshore wind turbine system. In the design of offshore wind turbine systems, these five parameters should be adjusted comprehensively. The seabed soil condition also needs to be carefully considered for soft clay and loose sand.展开更多

Considering the internal impedance of the source, a general model is here proposed, and the generalized transfer equations of the system and the closed form solutions for power flow in the fiexible system are then developed, with which the effects of the source characteristics on power flow transmission are discussed. The investigation shows that when the source and receiver impedances are comparable, substantial error can occur in the power flow estimation if the source is assumed to be an ideal constant force source (CFS)or a constant velocity source (CVS).展开更多
