Popis: This paper focuses on the effect of water depth on the hydrodynamics of floating offshore wind turbines with open-hole anti-heave devices. The three-floating-body wind turbine platform is used as the primary research object in this paper. The effect of water depth on the reduction of the heave motion of a floating platform with anti-heave devices is systematically investigated through a series of experiments and numerical simulations. The results show high agreement between the test results and simulations, with larger values of heave motion in deep water. A wind turbine platform with anti-heave devices can effectively reduce the lifting and sinking motions when the wave period is large.
