Abstract:   (7139 Views)
Tension leg platform is a compliant structure with vertical moorings and added buoyancy force. In this paper, effective parameters on experimental modeling of TLPs have been investigat. experimental modeling with correct scale factor has been done in Sharif University of Technology marine engineering laboratory test basin. deep water simulation capability were discussed and finally the model, launched in the basin. Pretension modeling is another conceptual component that could be easily analyzed.Ultimately Sea keeping results of ISSC TLP model duo to the regular laboratory waves with different heading angles and two amplitudes were extracted. The main purpose is ISSC TLP frequency response and surge beating analysis by model testing.
Keywords: Tension Leg Platform, Regular Waves, Model Test, Froude Similitude
