Özet

Wind energy is becoming an appreciable contribution to the solution of world's climate change and energy crisis. Offshore areas, with their abundant wind resources, are ideal locations for turbine installations. Although the usage and development of renewable energy production devices such as floating offshore wind turbines (FOWT) are gaining impetus, sufficient experimental and prototype data on the characteristics and reliability of FOWTs are lacking. The present study, as an attempt to contribute to this problem, focuses on the experimental and numerical simulation of a newly designed floating wind turbine platform.
