Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method and device for simulating a dynamic digital twin model of dominant operation of a wind turbine generator assembly, by which conventional operational parameters of the wind turbine generator assembly that are acquired in real time are preprocessed to obtain steady-state operational parameters of the wind turbine generator assembly. A pneumatic subsystem-related data black box model, a transmission subsystem model, a tower subsystem model, and an electrical subsystem model are simulated individually using the steady-state operational parameters, and then combined to form a dynamic dominant-operation simulation model for simulating an operation process of the wind turbine generator assembly. Meanwhile, a dynamic deviation compensation model is constructed on the basis of the dynamic dominant-operation simulation model.

Abstract: A floating wind power platform is suitable for offshore deployment in deep-sea environments. The platform includes a tower that supports a wind turbine and a base support structure that is stabilized by a combination of stabilizers, struts, and floats. The platform furthermore includes a set of propellers and an electronic motion control system to control position and orientation relative to the wind. The floating wind power platform may be deployed in groups of connected platforms tethered to a centralized fuel production platform, carbon dioxide (CO2) capture and sequestration platform, or other processing platform that transforms and/or utilizes energy captured from the wind power platforms.
