Introduction
This structure is fastened to the sea floor with three sturdy anchor line
The windmills will be designed for water depths from 200–700 meters.
The windmill will reach 80 meters above the sea's surface and will have a rotor
diameter of about 90 meters.
The windmill tower will be fastened to the concrete structure at about 12 meters
beneath the sea
It's feasible to imagine offshore wind farms with up to 200 turbines and a combined
power capacity of 1,000 MW. Steady winds in our part of the world could mean wind
farms producing more than 4 TWh per year
Three types of engineered design for anchoring floating structures.
In framed, tower like structures ,the horizontal wave forces produce extreme bending and overturning
moments as the wave forces act near the watersurface
If the mooring lines form an angle with the vertical line, the horizontal stiffness and the forces
increase ,hence design the system across leeward mooring lines are avoided
Design is based on loadings due to permanent and variable loads or by fatigue strength due to cyclic
wave loading & wind loading.
Load effects for fatigue analysis should be determined by considering all sea states that might be
experienced by the structure and also due to Possible degradation due to corrosion or crack growth
regular monitoring & maintenance is necessary.
Designing must based on serviceability and safety requirements for a service life of 100
years or more
For an underwater structure smaller damage may result in property damage which is
expensive to repair , structural failures would be related to a major structural damage
Even damage to a few compartments does not seem to impose a stability problem
Cathodic protection is generally applied while coating methods are applied for parts
shallower up to 1m depth.
Of 1m below the water level ,the coating methods include painting, titanium-clad lining,
stainless steel lining, thermal spraying with zinc, aluminium and aluminium alloy.
The splash zone is the most severe with regard to corrosive environment and its upper limit
zone is determined according to the installation of the structure.
The ebb and flow zone corresponds to the next most severe environment but this zone does
not exist for floating structures since they conform to the changing water level.
To prevent the structure from drifting away under critical sea conditions and
storms , hence the mooring system must be well designed.
We first select the proper mooring method, the shock absorbing material, the
quantity and layout of devices to meet the environmental conditions and the
operating conditions and equipment.
Displacement of floating structure and the mooring forces do not exceed the
allowable values.
It requires less investment when compared to others, Ecofriendly , higher electricity
production at cheap cost ,renewable and available all days and nights , Low noise
emissions
Advantages of operating in the offshore environment include higher and steadier wind
speeds, less-restrictive acoustic requirements, and fewer space constraints
