In an effort to harness the abundant offshore wind resource over deepwater, the development of numerical design tools for floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) has progressed steadily in recent years. However, at present, a validated model capable of completely coupling the full elastodynamic response between the mooring system, floating support structure, turbine tower and the wind turbine is not commercially available. The University of Maine has developed a new FOWT design, VolturnUS, which utilizes a concrete semi-submersible hull. For the VolturnUS design effort a number of numerical models were developed to analyze the system’s global performance. This paper presents the results of a validation study conducted to quantify the accuracy and suitability of a subset of these models for use in the design of the VolturnUS FOWT. Validation was conducted via comparisons of numerical model results to test data obtained from a 1:50 scale model testing campaign conducted by the University of Maine at the Maritime Research Institute, Netherlands offshore basin. The validation study evaluated the performance and capabilities of the numerical models over a range of design conditions. Emphasis was placed on design load cases (DLCs), which were found to govern the design of the FOWT. The DLCs follow the American Bureau of Shipping’s (ABS) Guide for Building and Classing Floating Offshore Wind Turbines. Through this method of model validation this work sought to quantify the numerical models’ accuracy, highlight their limitations, justify design assumptions, and identify areas requiring further development in the field of FOWT numerical modeling.

Desain penyejuk udara juga dapat diterapkan di bidang kesehatan, dengan standar Cleanroom dapat diperoleh suhu, kelembaban, kenyamanan dan kebersihan yang dibutuhkan untuk ruang steril (ruang bedah). Perancangan pendingin udara dalam hal ini dilakukan dengan menentukan beban pendinginan yang diperlukan untuk ruang steril (ruang bedah), kemudian menentukan ukuran ducting, jalur ducting, dan jumlah penggunaan ducting. Desain ini menggabungkan unit split saluran yang dimodifikasi, kipas booster, filter pra, filter medium, dan filter HEPA dengan menggunakan saluran aluminium preinsulated sebagai saluran udara. Desain dilakukan dengan menggunakan perangkat lunak AutoCAD 2012, Design Tools Duct Sizer, dan Microsoft Excel. Dari hasil perhitungan dan desain didapatkan kebutuhan kapasitas 3 ruang bedah yaitu ducted ducted 100.000 BTUH sebanyak 3 unit, booster fan 3.3 - 4 Di WG sebanyak 3 unit, pre filter 24 "x 24" x 2 "6 set, filter menengah 610 x 610 x 290 mm 6 set, dan filter HEPA 1220 x 610 x 70 mm 12. Untuk ruang steril, tekanan statis yang dihasilkan oleh unit pendingin harus lebih besar daripada tekanan statis yang dihasilkan dari unit yang ada. di ruang semi steril. Dengan kata lain, ruang steril harus memiliki tekanan positif terhadap ruang semi steril. Hal ini dimaksudkan agar udara di ruang semi steril tidak masuk ke ruang steril ketika pintu antar ruangan dibuka. Desain dan perhitungan ruang bedah, suhu nyata yang diperoleh adalah 23 ° C ± 2 ° C dan kelembaban relatif yang diperoleh adalah 60% ± 2%.   Air conditioning design can also be applied in the health field, with cleanroom standard can be obtained temperature, humidity, comfort and hygiene needed for sterile room (surgical room). The design of air conditioning in this case is done by determining the cooling load required for the sterile room (surgical room), then determining the ducting size, ducting path, and the amount of ducting usage. This design combines modified ducted split unit, booster fan, pre filter, medium filter, and HEPA filter by using preinsulated aluminum duct as an air passage. The design is done by using AutoCAD 2012 software, Design Tools Duct Sizer, and Microsoft Excel. From the calculation and design result obtained the capacity requirement of 3 surgical room that is split ducted 100.000 BTUH as many as 3 units, booster fan 3.3 - 4 In WG as many as 3 units, pre filter 24"x 24" x 2" 6 sets, medium filter 610 x 610 x 290 mm 6 sets, and HEPA filter 1220 x 610 x 70 mm 12 sets. For the sterile room, the static pressure generated by the cooling unit shall be larger than the static pressure generated from the unit present in the semi sterile room. In other words, the sterile room must have positive pressure to the semi sterile room. It is intended that the air in the semi sterile room does not enter into the sterile room when the door between room opened. In this surgical room design and calculation, real temperature obtained is 23 °C ± 2 °C and the relative moisture obtained is 60% ± 2%.
