dc.description.abstractThe overall objective of this thesis has been to design and analyse mooring systems for wind turbines in intermediately deep waters, comparing different systems, mooring line materials as well as analysis methods. System to be analysed: The study covers four alternative mooring line systems for a CSC 10MW FWT (Floating Wind Turbine) for an offshore wind park in Donghae area in South Korea: • System I - Catenary chain - Base case system • System II - Taut polyester system - Constant axial stiffness EA • System III - Taut polyester system - Sima Fibre rope stiffnes model • System IV - Polyester system with bouys Analysis findings: • Coupled Simo-Riflex model of FWT with base case mooring system with 147mm R3 quality chain has been made and set up for 3 hour time domain analysis • Decay tests in surge, heave, pitch and yaw for both Simo only and coupled Simo-Riflex model has been performed resulting in natural periods, frequencies, and damping versus critical damping • Slowly ramped pull-out analysis performed resulting in system restoring characteristics with and without current, and line characteristic for windward line and one of the leeward lines • 3 Load cases has been defined for 50 year return period waves and wind in direction causing in-line loading of mooring system, 1 50 year return period load case defined causing in-between loading of mooring system, 1 load case defined for rated wind velocity and 1 load case defined for before shut down wind velocity both for operational turbine – Wave and wind data come from Metocean report ME2019-096 Rev05 supplied by Equinor – Wave data for operational load cases defined by wind probability – Current 2-3 % of wind velocity – Water depth is 150 [m] • Quadratic wind coefficients calculated for: – 50 year return period wind – Rated wind – Shut down wind • For load case 1 a seed convergence test was made with regards of most probable maximum tension (MPM) in windward line resulting in the use of 16 different random wind and wave seeds for use in time domain analysis of the systems • 16 3 hour time domain analyses were performed for each load case for the base case system • These were post processed in both Sima post processor tasks and Microsoft Excel resulting in: – Mean and most probable max values for degree of freedom surge, heave, and pitch – Mean and most probable max tension in windward line – Mean and most probable minimum tension for leeward line, accounting for slack • Mean surge offset was checked by hand calculating mean loads from wind and current and checking that against the system restoring characteristics • Heave motion result was spot checked for a wave with corresponding heave motion from RAO in kinetics folder in Sima • Mean pitch was checked using hand calculated mean pitch moment from wind and current together with water plane stiffness C55 in order to find hand calculated mean pitch angle • Surge, heave and pitch checks corresponded well with analysis results from Sima. Time series of surge, heave and pitch motion as well as windward and leeward line tension for a characteristic sea state with random wind and wave seed equal one was presented • Frequency analysis was performed using an auto spectrum on time series of motion and windward line tension subtracting mean – The sources of loads were checked from the frequency spectrum and natural frequency found from decay tests • Base case system was checked regarding ULS capacity using consequence class 1 and requirements from DNVGL-ST-0119 • Dynamic effects for the different load cases was checked by plotting windward line tension versus offset for 3 hour time domain analysis results on top of windward line characteristic – Dynamic effects were seen for the 50 year load cases while the operational turbine load cases had a quasi-static behaviour – Furthermore the plots showed that the dynamic part of design tension, TC,Dyn correosponds well with mean and max tension around the line characteristic curve Comparison of design methods: An analysis was made using Simo only for the base case system and compared with coupled Simo-Riflex analysis result. This showed that the dynamic part of line tension is much higher for coupled Simo-Riflex analysis and the Simo result has a quasi-static behavior. System I – Catenary chain - Base case system: The following observations were made about the base case system: • ULS capacity is achieved according to DNVGL-ST-0119 requirement for all load cases for R3 quality chain and consequence class 1 – Because the worst seastate capacity margin is just above one, the chain quality or dimension cannot be reduced. • For load case 1-3 the system has a dynamic behaviour while for the operational load cases the system follows a quasi static behaviour • Some slack is observed from the time series of windward line load case 1 and 3, but it is not many instances. Most probable minimum line tension for leeward lines show likelihood for slack in the leeward lines for all load cases – Furthermore a check with increased pre-tension for load case 1 showed that increasing pretension to 1800 [kN] increases dynamic effects and doesn’t reduce instances of slack. The few instances are assumed to be acceptable due to statistically 50 years period between each time the instances occur • Surge motion is worst for the in-between load case, most probable max 38 [m] followed by load case 1, 3, 2, 4 and 5. Whether this large offset is ok or not would need to be checked in accordance with the requirements from the umbilical, power cable. • Offset from hand calculated mean loads were checked against analysis results, the differences were small • Pitch has a mean angle of about 2 [deg] for the 50 year return period load cases and is worst for load case 4 due to trust force from turbine, most probable max 13 [deg] with somewhat increased mean – For shut down wind the pitch angle is slightly higher than for 50 year return period load cases, but no where near as high as for load case 4 Comparison of mooring systems : • The loads for each load case are generally the same for all systems, but the mooring systems are different. This is why surge motion is very different for each system while heave and pitch motion are very similar load case by load case. This also applies to the frequency spectra for each load case as compared with the other systems • Mooring line tension: – Windward line tension is largest for system I, followed by III, II and IV. While mean tension between the systems are very similar as compared load case by load case – The dynamic portion of windward line tension is large for system I, base case syste – The polyester systems have a much more quasi static relation of tension versus surge offset. Furthermore the polyester systems incur much less loads in the mooring lines – Generally system I has the largest leeward line tension as well – The lowest leeward line tension occurs for load case 6 system II and III – Otherwise all most probable minimum tensions are nonzero. This is confirmed by the time series of leeward line tension, there is no slack in any of the systems • Surge motion: – Surge motions are different for each system – System I has largest surge offset, followed by IV, III and II. Given the stiffness of the systems this trend is likely correct • Heave and pitch motion: – Heave and pitch motions are very similar load case by load case – The worst pitch angle occurs for load case 4, between 13 and 15 [deg] pitch angle. – Furthermore pitch motion is largely pitch resonant for all load cases. The system with most resonance is system IV followed by II, III, and I • System II and III are very stiff with a natural period of 54 [s] – Because of less steep line characteristics for system III than system II, system III is softer and this is seen from surge offset and line tension comparison • This also applies to the frequency spectra for each load case as compared with the other systems • Capacity margins regarding ULS were calculated for all the systems and load cases. They are all greater than 1 meaning all the systems have capacity for ULS. In that sense all systems are approved according to DNVGL-ST-0119. The 50 year return period load cases are most critical regarding ULS and the operational load cases have larger capacity, but since the worst load case is just above 1 for system I-III the mooring line dimensions cannot be reduced. System IV has slightly higher capacity in load case 1, the worst load case. Therefore there is a slight possibility to reduce the dimensions of polyester rope, but that would require another 16 random seed 3 hour analyses to confirm that the new dimension complies with the capacity requirement.
