Abstract

An extensive code-to-code comparison among DIEGO, DLW and HAWC2 has been performed on a floating wind turbine (modified version of UMaine floater with IEAWIND 15MW wind turbine). In total, 10 cases are compared, and a few key results of this comparison are reported in this paper. From the comparisons, it is clearly seen that the results predicted by the three codes are generally agreed well despite some differences in specific degrees of freedom like roll, sway and yaw for the extreme load case, which requires additional investigations.
