Preliminary Quayside Tow-Out & Assembly Modules #15
Conversation
…production with multiple assembly lines.
…ssembly. Expanded test structure for new modules.
…needed for towing/stabilization operations.

Why is this getting monopile_design?

Oops that's a mistake. I probably copied it over from that module and read monopile as mooring. Will change.

So, I think that the turbine assembly lines can run in parallel if called by project manager? Is this correct?

You can configure multiple turbine assembly lines in the module and they will run in parallel.

Or maybe I'm not understanding the question?

no, that was the question. thanks!

Here, is self.day_rate the aggregated day rate of all the vessels in teh group?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
This attribute is the vessel day rate for one vessel but there are specialized methods that will return a "total" day rate for the group dependent on the number of vessels needed for each operation.

what is sub_storage? max number (or mass, volume?) of substructures that can be stored at the port

Number of substructures that can be stored at port.
This starts to push the original boundaries of ORBIT (no supply chain modeling) but from talking with Aaron and Luisa (and even the conversation with the bench marking group this morning), it sounds like this is an important consideration for floating substructures.
I designed the module in a way that this can be easily ignored by setting 'takt_time' to 0 and leaving 'sub_storage' to it's default of infinity. In this situation, all substructures will be "manufactured" at time 0 and the assembly won't constrain the installations at all.

Same as above, what is assembly_storage?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Number of completed assemblies (substructure + turbine) that can be stored at port.
I'll put some additional documentation on these inputs.

We don't need to do this now, but we could think about adding an argument (and code structure) for # of turbines per substructure. there are some concept designs with 2 tubines on 1 platform.

Hmm good idea - I'll look at adding this in.

is 20 a hardcoded vessel transit speed? why is transit time different than towing time - return to port?
There was a problem hiding this comment.
Oh good catch - I meant to have this be the vessel speed.
From talking with Aaron, it seemed that the towing speed is significantly slower than what the vessels can travel at unburdened. I also got the impression the towing speed is more dependent on the substructure (draft, Cd) than the specific vessels which is why I added the input for 'towing_speed'.

Closing and merging into separate branch for floating branch, "feature/floating-modules". All comments in this PR have been resolved. |
Includes two new installation modules:
MooredSubInstallationandGravityBasedInstallation.I'll send you an example jupyter notebook over teams.
Still needs additional tests, further refinement of processes (with industry support) and code cleanup.
This PR also includes a preliminary
