Modelling of Wind-Wave Misalignment for Floating Offshore Wind Turbines
Abstract: The influence of the combined effects of wind and waves onto the performance of a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) is analyzed. A study of the wind conditions relative to the position of the aerodynamic rotor has been made, analyzing how the angle of incidence of the wind (angle of attack) varies with the wind direction and the inclination of the wind turbine mast as a consequence of the undulatory …
