Development of Floating Offshore Wind Turbine and the Mooring System

Article Preview

Abstract:

The offshore wind turbine, especially the floating offshore wind turbine in the deep sea is a perspective technology in the context of increasing energy demands. Mooring system, as an important unit of the floating offshore wind turbine is emphasized. The methods of in-situ test and the laboratory experimental tests are reviewed. Some new testing methods are discussed. The most commonly used anchor systems are explored. The paper aims to present some future research work that is important for the development of the floating offshore wind turbine technology.
