Feasibility study and dynamic analysis of floating vertical axis wind turbines in multi-applications
Wen, Ting Rui (Masteroppgave/UIS-TN-IMBM/2018;, Master thesis, 2018-06-15)In the past decades, the global wind energy has rapidly grown. Greater potential of wind recourses is explored in the deeper sea; hence, wind farms have progressively moved toward the deep water over the years. Floating ... -
Numerical Investigation on Aerodynamic Characteristics of Dual-Rotor Wind Turbines
Wang, Kai; Liu, Tianhui; Wan, Yuanchen; Ong, Muk Chen; Wu, Tiecheng (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2022)Improving power output and reducing costs are crucial to the sustainable development of offshore wind power. In the present study, a dual-rotor wind turbine (DRWT) is proposed to improve wind energy capture efficiency by ... -
Power performance and dynamic responses of a combined floating vertical axis wind turbine and wave energy converter concept
Cheng, Zhengshun; Wen, Ting-Rui; Ong, Muk Chen; Wang, Kai (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2019)Currently, the development of floating wind turbines and wave energy converters (WECs) is both facing the challenge of high cost-of-energy (CoE). A promising way to reduce the CoE is to employ combined wind and wave energy ... -
Spar-type vertical-axis wind turbines in moderate water depth: A feasibility study
Wen, Ting-Rui; Wang, Kai; Cheng, Zhengshun; Ong, Muk Chen (Peer reviewed; Journal article, 2018)The applications of floating vertical-axis wind turbines (VAWTs) in deep water have been proposed and studied by several researchers recently. However, the feasibility of deploying a floating VAWT at a moderate water depth ... -
Structural dynamic analysis of semi-submersible floating vertical axis wind turbines
Ishie, Jeremiah; Wang, Kai; Ong, Muk Chen (Journal article; Peer reviewed, 2016-12)The strong and stable wind at offshore locations and the increasing demand for energy have made the application of wind turbines in deeper water surge. A novel concept of a 5 MW baseline Floating Vertical Axis Wind Turbine ...
