Abstract

This paper presents the idea of incorporating oscillating water columns (OWCs) into the barge platform of a floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) to make it a multi-purpose platform for harnessing both wind and wave energies. Moreover, the OWCs will help stabilize the FOWT platform by means of an airflow control strategy used to reduce the platform pitch and tower top fore-aft displacement. This is achieved by a proposed airflow control strategy to control the valves within the OWCs. The comparative study between a standard FOWT and the proposed OWC-based FOWT shows an improvement in the platform’s stability.
