Anotace textu normy ČSN EN IEC 61400-3-2   (333160)

This part of IEC 61400 specifies requirements for assessment of the external conditions at a floating offshore wind turbine (FOWT) site and specifies essential design requirements to ensure the engineering integrity of FOWTs. Its purpose is to provide an appropriate level of protection against damage from all anticipated hazards during the planned lifetime.

This document focuses on the engineering integrity of the structural components of a FOWT but is also concerned with subsystems such as control and protection mechanisms, internal electrical systems and mechanical systems.

A wind turbine shall be considered as a FOWT if the floating substructure is subject to hydrodynamic loading and supported by buoyancy and a stationkeeping system. A FOWT encompasses five principal subsystems: the RNA, the tower, the floating substructure, the stationkeeping system and the onboard machinery, equipment and systems that are not part of the RNA.

The following types of floating substructures are explicitly considered within the context of this document:

- ship-shaped structures and barges,

- semi-submersibles (Semi),

- spar buoys (Spar),

- tension-leg platforms/buoys (TLP / TLB).
