Resumen
This is a new installment in the series of publications that describe the mathematical modeling of the Floating Hybrid Generator Systems Simulator (FHYGSYS) tool. This work presents an improved mathematical model of the turbines of the floating hybrid system?consisting of an ?OC3-Hywind? wind turbine and two marine current turbines?presented by the authors in previous publications. In this third installment, the modeling of the three turbines of the floating hybrid system is described using the Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory. This modeling allows one to replace the one based on the One-Dimensional theory used in previous installments. For the operation of modeling with BEM, it has been considered necessary to implement a continuous feedback control system. In this case, two PID (proportional?integral?derivative) controllers have been implemented in each of the turbines. The first controls the torque on the turbine generator and the second controls the collective pitch angle of the blades. The results obtained are presented and validated through a code-to-code comparison with simulations carried out with FASTv8 under the same conditions and with the operating results of marine current turbines that exist in the literature. This improvement in the mathematical model offers the possibility of implementing other types of controllers that allow for the testing of different strategies of the floating hybrid control system, with the aim of maximizing energy production while ensuring the structural stability of the floating hybrid system.
