This study investigates the impact of different tendon configurations on the hydrodynamic performance of a Tension Leg Platform (TLP) floating offshore wind turbine. Utilizing the NREL 5 MW turbine and the MIT TLP design, three new mooring system configurations were developed, including a mooring layout with two tendons arranged in an X shape between adjacent vertical tendons. The configurations were tested under various load cases using OpenFAST. Results indicate that the X layout configurations reduce the surge and yaw motions compared to the original layout under operating conditions. Eight tendon failure scenarios with different failed tendons were also analyzed.

The configurations were tested under various load cases using OpenFAST. Results indicate that the X layout configurations reduce the surge and yaw motions compared to the original layout under operating conditions. Eight tendon failure scenarios with different failed tendons were also analyzed.
