Numerical Study on the Hydrodynamic Characteristics of Pontoon for Wind Energy Marine Unit / 離岸風力電廠浮筒水動力特性計算分析研究

碩士 / 中原大學 / 機械工程研究所 / 96 / This study discusses the influence of several important parameters on the hydrodynamic moment created by the rotating pontoon of a WEMU turbine, where the turbulent flow around pontoon under the double-model assumption is calculated by solving the Reynolds averaged continuity and momentum equations incorporated with the standard k- turbulence model. It is found the resulted hydrodynamic moment due to the rotational motion of pontoon has a power-law dependence on the period of rotation, while the power-law constant approaches to unity provided a sufficiently large incoming flow velocity is present. The numerical results also indicate that the dimensionless moment increases with the decrease of cross-section diameter of pontoon, the decrease of submergence of pontoon, and the increase of incoming speed, and the decrease of Reynolds number. The influence of cross-section shape on the dimensionless moment is not significant, while the triangular series gives the largest moment coefficient and the rectangle series the smallest.
