Stability of floating wind turbines

[@bliss4448]

This is a great video i love it!

[@philipploeffler7779]

I like the high tech wind simulation 😁

[@tommytran5962]

I really like your style of videos. Thank you.

SPAR’s have been abandoned in favor of the MPSS style of semisubmersible. On the Argos project alone >$10 billion was saved. Smarter designs include a shipyard friendly approach, rolled steel is NOT shipyard friendly.

This could be at a > 500k - 1M view vid, with higher production budget. Good stuff, thx

[@REALITY_ONLY_PLEASE]

Any cost projections for supporting, say, a 15 MW turbine including moorings in say 60M? I know BP swapped a SPAR idea for a semisubmersible in the GOM and saved $11 Billion on a $20 billion project. I worry that the industry is just making the same mistakes the Oil Industry did in the past. I can't remember many ships that were built with Tubes and most still stay away from bending anything as much as possible.

Interesting video, well presented. Have you heard of DNV - you may want to check out positions as they we are expanding in this field - Our ETO predicts close to 300 GW of floating wind installed by 2050

[@Jonbe88]

What happens if you put the fan in the water.?

[@C0NN]

how do they lay the mooring lines?

[@M0jeaRO]

Can we use the same principe with a vertical airship

[@rananasser1902]

There is no sound in the video!!

Stability of a “floating” object does not related to position of of centre of buoyancy. In fact, it depend on position of centre of gravity and metacenter position.

[@ikjaelee4424]

Definitely. BUT, we have to calculate first the center of buoyancy in order to obtain the "metacenter". Well-known intact stability formula: GM = KB + BM - KG; G: center of gravity, B: center of buoyancy; M: metacenter

[@ikjaelee4424]

Moreover, all of terms above are calculated by direct hydrostatic pressure integration over the wetted surface and distributed gravitation body force over the entire volume of the floating structure.
