    Marine hydrological information plays a significant role in development and exploration of marine resources. Temperature, salinity and depth are fundamental elements of marine hydrology. Monitoring of marine temperature, salinity and depth data plays an important role in the development and utilization of marine resources. The conductivity temperature depth profiler (CTD) is the main instrument for observing seawater temperature and salinity profiles. By using CTD sensors, parameters such as temperature and conductivity of seawater at different depths can be measured. In recent years, flexible electronic sensors have demonstrated great potential for application due to their excellent stretchability and easy attachment, which not only achieve the sensing performance of traditional rigid sensors to a certain extent, but also compensate for the shortcomings of traditional sensors such as large volume and weight. This review introduces the research progress of flexible ocean CTD sensors in recent years, mainly including the working mechanism and classification, common materials, manufacturing processes of flexible sensors, and analyzes the structure, performance, and application platform of existing flexible ocean CTD sensors.

    This paper sorts out relevant engineering cases at home and abroad, analyzes the advantages and disadvantages of physical energy storage and electrochemical energy storage in offshore applications based on three scenarios: the mandatory requirement of energy storage systems policy for large-scale offshore wind farms, energy storage for improving the penetration of offshore wind power into the grid for integrated development of offshore oil and gas and new energy, and energy storage for off-grid production of green hydrogen, green ammonia, and green methanol. Considering the technology maturity, safety, reliability, compactness, lightweight, economy, and other factors, the most suitable energy storage applied offshorely is still the LFP battery. In the future, considering the superiority of lithium titanate oxide (LTO) batteries in terms of safety, after the cost is reduced, the choice of LTO battery could be considered. But due to the low density of LTO battery, the volume and quality of the equipment are larger than that of LFP battery, and the layout of the offshore platform needs to be further considered. In addition, because there is no single energy storage system that can simultaneously have the characteristics of high power, large energy storage density, reliable safety, and long life cycle, the use of “flywheel+” and “supercapacitor+”hybrid energy storage system is considered, to maximize the shortcomings of a single energy storage method to make up for, to obtain a better performance of the energy storage system. In order to ensure the safety and reliability of new energy storage engineering applications at sea, it is suggested that further research and engineering application of technologies such as the intrinsic safety, safety monitoring and early warning of energy storage under the anti-sloshing conditions of floating facilities at sea should be carried out.

    Investigation on the Influence of Anchor Chain Length and Weight on the Motion Response of Floating Wind Turbine Platforms
    SUN Xiang, TIAN Zhenya, ZHU Ronghua
    Ocean Engineering Equipment and Technology    2024, 11 (1): 59-64.   DOI: 10.12087/oeet.2095-7297.2024.01.10
    Abstract210)      PDF(pc) (3492KB)(265)       Save
    Based on an actual engineering project involving a floating scale prototype, this article employs a timedomain analysis method to numerically simulate the transient response of a semi-submersible floating wind turbine platform. It extensively investigates the influence of varying anchor chain length and counterweight mass on the pre-tension of the mooring system and the motion response of the floating platform. The results indicate that the amplitude of pitch, heave, and surge responses of the floating platform initially increases and then decreases with an increase in mooring length. Increasing the mass of the counterweight leads to an initial increase and subsequent decrease in pitch and heave responses, while the surge response initially decreases and then increases. When simultaneously changing both the mooring length and counterweight mass, the counterweight mass does not affect the variation pattern of platform motion response caused by mooring length.

    In order to make full use of the high temperature exhaust gas of the main generator and realize energy saving and emission reduction, the waste heat recovery unit has been designed in the basic design stage in “Hai Yang Shi You 123”FPSO(Floating Production Storage and Offloading), but the waste heat and the heating medium circulation system of the boiler are completely independent, and can not be mutually standby, and the four heating medium circulation pumps of the waste heat are not connected to the emergency bus, which will lead to the black start of the FPSO. It is easy to cause local high temperature coking and carbonization of heating medium in the furnace tube of waste heat recovery unit, which affects the operation of the system. In order to solve the problem effectively, the scheme of adding the circulating pump of waste heat system into the emergency bus bar is proposed creatively, which can effectively avoid the occurrence of heating medium coking in the waste heat system during black start.

    The decision on wind sail angle is crucial for effectively harnessing wind energy in windassisted ships. During ship navigation, the wind sail generates both thrust and lateral thrust, causing ship yawing and reduced energy efficiency. To address this problem, this paper introduced a lateral thrust weight factor and established a bilinear angle decision function composed of the thrust coefficient and the lateral thrust coefficient. The function aimed to minimize the deviation angle of the optimal course and utilized the particle swarm optimization algorithm to solve for the optimal weight factor applicable to the specific route. This approach enables achieving optimal sail angles under different relative wind directions, allowing for windassisted ship navigation without relying on steering and avoiding course deviation. Compared to the traditional angle strategy based on the maximum thrust method, the proposed approach results in slight improvement in heading longitudinal displacement within the same navigation time, substantial reduction in sideways displacement and course deviation angle, and smoother angle variations during fluctuations in relative wind direction. These findings are beneficial for wind sail manipulation. This research provides insights to enhance the energy efficiency of wind-assisted ships.

    Submerged floating tunnels(SFTs) are a new type of transportation structure used to cross deep water. To ensure the dynamic stability of SFTs under wave and current loading, an appropriate mooring system is required. This research focuses on submerged floating tunnels with anchor cables and investigates the impact of different anchor cable layouts on the dynamic response of SFTs. Utilizing OrcaFlex software, finite element models are established to analyze the stiffness of mooring systems under both vertical and inclined layouts. The variations in tunnel displacement, acceleration, and anchor cable tension under regular waves and uniform currents are examined. The results show that the inclined anchor cable layout with an inclination angle of 45° and an installation angle of 45° can effectively suppress the vertical and lateral motion response of the tunnel, ensuring structural stability and preventing anchor cable fatigue damage. Furthermore, this layout is applicable to SFTs of different lengths.

    Offshore wind resources in deep-water is more abundant and will be one of the main development trends in the next few years. However, offshore wind development faces many challenges such as the power transmission and consumption. It needs new development models and technological innovations to be promoted. Hydrogen production through offshore wind would improve the power system flexibility and safety, and could be used as renewable energy storage to achieve large-scale and long-term storage. Based on the market price and literature, the tech-economic comparison and evaluation are carried of onshore off-grid hydrogen production and offshore hydrogen production with pipeline from the levelized cost of hydrogen and internal rate of return. Based on the whole life cost, the levelized cost of hydrogen production through offshore with pipeline is lower and the CAPEX and OPEX of water electrolysis system have a significant impact on the LCOH. In terms of economy, offshore wind will obtain higher returns than offshore hydrogen production if all electricity could be imported to the power system.

    The offshore platform has small space, limited installed capacity of generators, increased load capacity, and increased load rate of transformers. The excitation inrush current during no-load closing of transformers causes a huge impact on both transformers and generators, and can also lead to closing failure. Most products use phase separation operation to control the closing angle and suppress the transformer closing inrush current. However, due to the three-phase linkage of the circuit breakers of the generator and transformer, the actual application effect is not ideal. The Vizimax MVX surge suppressor greatly reduces the amplitude of the surge and harmonic components by measuring and controlling residual magnetism, ensuring the success of each closing, improving power quality, and prolonging the life of core electrical equipment such as transformers and generators. It can provide experience and reference for similar engineering projects in the future.

    Rack phase difference may be produced in the process of positioning of truss-type Jack-up unit, which will cause a significant additional bending moment at the contact position between the legs and the main hull of the unit, resulting in buckling failure of the leg support pipe at the low guiding position of the hull. In the paper, a jack-up unit is taken as the research object, ANSYS software and birth-death element technology is used to forecast RPD value of jack-up unit in the process of lifting hull by 3-D time-domain numerical simulation analysis, which is divided into four main stages according to changes of RPD value. On this basis, the RPD variation characteristics under three wind speed conditions are analyzed, which is helpful to determine the impact of wind speed on RPD in the process of lifting hull. Finally, a set of RPD control method is proposed based on the law of the change of RPD and the stress of the leg in order to monitor RPD of platform leg.

    Underwater storage facilities, leveraging oil-water displacement technology, serve as independent storage units that provide diversified media storage at sea and are essential for the development and utilization of marine energy. This paper analyzes five potential application scenarios for future underwater storage facilities, including the development of marginal oil fields in shallow waters, underwater energy storage technology, underwater methanol and ammonia storage technology, underwater carbon dioxide storage technology, and the storage and injection technology of chemical reagents on the seabed. In marginal oil fields, a combined approach using an integrated processing platform, underwater storage facilities, and shuttle tankers can enhance cost adaptability and the flexibility of storage capacity customization. Underwater energy storage technology (underwater compressed air energy storage and underwater hydrogen storage) is provided for offshore wind platforms to ensure the stability of power transmission and reduce the limitations of storage space on the platform. Offshore wind power can also be converted into methanol and ammonia, by adopting underwater storage solutions. The storage units on the platform can be canceled, thereby reducing overall investment. By installing LCO2 storage facilities underwater instead of storing it on the injection platform, the efficiency of LCO2 storage and its environmental adaptability can be improved. The use of seabed chemical reagent storage and injection technology significantly enhances the safety, cost-effectiveness, and injection accuracy of the chemical reagent system.

    Undersea junction technology is one of the core technologies for building a cabled ocean observatory system, which connects multiple devices underwater to manage the power and information. The undersea junction technology started earlier in United States, Japan, Canada and other country, which gradually developed negative high-voltage single-stage DC power transmission, high-power power conversion, underwater wet plug, large-scale optical fiber communication networking and other technologies. Using modular design and multi-level junction box interconnection, large subsea observatory has been built in many sea areas. In the past decade, with the domestic development of offshore ocean observation system, junction box design and high voltage power transmission, remote communication and control technology has developed rapidly, the scientific nodes undersea junction boxes have been successfully applied in a number of sea areas, but has not yet formed a large observatory. Some of the deepwater key components such as underwater wet plug connectors, cables are mainly dependent on imports. While introducing and absorbing foreign advanced technology, the development of high-performance controllers, high-power conversion modules, underwater connectors and photoelectric complex cables will be a very important direction of the future junction boxes.

    The jacket pile gripper is a key equipment for the installation of offshore jacket platforms. It is installed on top of the jacket skirt pile sleeve. During operation, the hydraulic cylinder is driven to clamp the steel pile to ensure the relative fixation between the steel pile and the jacket. If the gripper fails during the installation process of the jacket platform, it will seriously affect the entire offshore installation plan and cause huge economic losses. Therefore, in order to ensure the product quality of the gripper, it is necessary to conduct factory testing of key components of the gripper on land, factory testing after final assembly, and system testing after installation on the jacket platform to verify the functional integrity of the pile clamp.

    China's offshore wind power generation enter the era of affordable grid connection, and all component designs in the industry face the challenge of optimizing design. Bend restrictors are widely used in wind cable protection, and their bending stiffness and Mises peak stress are key indicators in structural design. At present, the optimization design of bend restrictors is mostly based on experience and finite element analysis iteration, which has low efficiency and is difficult to achieve multiobjective optimization. The paper proposes a multi-objective optimization method based on neural networks for the optimization of marine cable of wind farm bend restrictors to address this issue. Firstly, construct an RBF neural network proxy model using samples obtained from orthogonal experimental design and finite element analysis within the given design domain. Furthermore, the non-dominated sorting genetic algorithm Ⅱ (NSGA-Ⅱ) is used for multi-objective optimization of the bend restrictor, and the Pareto optimal solution set is obtained. A feasible multi-objective optimization method is provided for the structural design of the bend restrictor.

    In the process of subsea manifold hoisting and lowering, when the ship-cable-body multi-body coupling system moves greatly due to strong nonlinear environmental load, the cables of the hoisting system will change rapidly from slack to tensioning, resulting in the instantaneous surge of mooring impact tension, which may endanger the safe operation of the system. This article simulates the launching process of the underwater data center through fully coupled dynamic time-domain simulation. It considers the motion of ships and the effects of wind, waves, currents, and wave slamming, especially the impact of waves on the underwater data center when it first enters the water. Sensitivity analysis is conducted on the key parameters of wave slamming, accurately predicting the acceleration and six degrees of freedom of the data center when it enters the water, ensuring the smooth and safe entry of the underwater data center into the water. The research results provide certain theoretical and technical references for the design and offshore installation of underwater data centers in the future.
