Abstract

Considering the offshore installation requirements and the environmental loads of the in-situ operation conditions of the wind turbine platform, a fully submerged Tension Leg Platform structural concept is proposed based on the theory of hydrostatic stability and hydrodynamics of the floating body, with an IEA 10 MW wind turbine arranged on the upper part of the platform, and 4×3 wireropes of 130 mm spiral stand rope as the main body of the tendon system. Then a fully coupled integrated analysis model of the wind turbine-platform-tendon system is established, and the time domain numerical analysis is carried out to evaluate the global performance of the tension leg platform concept under the environmental conditions in the South China Sea area. The results show that the tension leg platform has excellent motion performance, with the maximum inclination angle not exceeding 1° under the 50-year return period design environmental conditions. The tendon system using wire ropes meets the strength and fatigue life safety factor requirements specified in the design code.

Key words
