| Abstract | The scour around the jacket type offshore wind turbine foundation exposed to wave and current is conducted in the Near-Shore Wave Basin (NSWB) at the Tainan Hydraulics Laboratory (THL) with the 1:36 scale mobile bed experiment. Two locations (water depth 12m and 16m) of the foundations are separately simulated in this study. In this paper, the maximum scour depth and the potential impact scour area around the jacket type offshore wind turbine foundation is analyzed from the result of the mobile bed experiment. Based on the analysis from the former NSWB experimental results, the suitable scour protection of a four-layer work around the foundation is also proposed to the impact of scour. Finally, a four-layer scour protection is tested and found to be effective in preventing scour around jacket type foundation of offshore wind turbines at water depth 12m and 16m. |
