Abstract

The title of this project is Design and Analysis of Offshore Wind Turbine. The objective of this project is to gather the design data to competently design an offshore wind turbine, which is composed of three main structures comprising of the rotor/blades, the tower nacelle and finally the supporting structure. This project is important because wind energy is the fastest growing renewable energy in the world and major gains in terms of energy generation are achievable when turbines are moved offshore. For the purposes of this Bachelor project, in-depth analysis of rotor/blades will not be the focus. Design will focus on the nacelle and supporting structure. The completed final design is analyzed using commercial finite-element modeling tool ANSYS to obtain the structure‟s response towards loading conditions and to ensure it complies with guidelines laid out by classification authority Det Norske Veritas. Finally, a model of the structure will be fabricated using Rapid- Prototype technology.
