Comparing with the horizontal axis wind turbines (HAWTs), the vertical axis wind turbines (VAWTs) have the advantages of lower location of the center of gravity, more stable structure, lower installation and maintenance cost. The VAWTs are more economical when the generated power is more than 5MW. The VAWTs will be used to the offshore deep sea wind power in this project, the dynamic characteristic of the large VAWTs supported by the floating foundation and the nonlinear motions of the floating foundation will be studied. Considering the coupling of rigid motions of the floating foundation and the flexible vibration of the wind turbines’ tower, the dynamical models with rigid-flexible coupling motions of the wind turbine system will be established. The phenomena of dynamic stiffening and dynamic softening of rigid motions of the floating foundation to the tower of the wind turbines will be investigated and the natural vibration characteristic of the wind turbine system will be studied more accurately. Considering the rigid-flexible coupling and the influence of the floating foundation motions on the wind force comprehensively, the motion responses of the wind turbine system will be predicted and the critical operation environmental parameters will be ascertained. The yaw of the floating foundation will be analyzed and the ability of resisting torsion of the mooring system will be studied. Considering the wind force and wave force, the nonlinear dynamical behaviors of bifurcation, chaos, energy transfer, ect of the floating foundation will be studied, and the key dynamical parameters that lead to the large amplitude nonlinear motions of the floating foundation will be found. The project will support the theoretical guidances for the parameter design of the offshore floating VAWTs and lay the theoretical foundation for propelling the large-scale development of offshore wind power in our country.
