This study investigates the impact of the / ratio on the VIM characteristics of floating wind turbine foundations. Numerical simulations were conducted using an improved delayed detached eddy simulation (IDDES) model
integrated with dynamic mesh technology. The effect is studied through the vortex-induced motion of floating cylindrical structures. The analysis includes motion amplitude
frequency characteristics
motion trajectories
and wake structures. The findings reveal that the / ratio significantly influences sway motion
followed by heave motion
with negligible impact on yaw motion. An increase in the / ratio expands the lock-in region
intensifying vortex-induced resonance responses. No VIM is observed at an / ratio of 0.5; at this ratio
the natural frequency increases linearly with reduced velocity
and the motion trajectory is irregular. VIM occurs when the / ratio is greater than or equal to 1.0
and the motion trajectory evolves into a regular figure-eight shape as the / ratio increases. These results underscore the importance of the / ratio in influencing vortex-induced resonance in floating cylindrical structures.
