Description:The purpose of this presentation is to provide a comprehensive overview of the OTEC Cold Water Pipe program. The overview will include a discussion of the technical problems being addressed, the rationale behind the technology development program, and the analytical procedures used to define pipe behavior. Emphasis will be placed on demonstrating what planning has occurred in the program plan. Anticipated outputs and application to other marine technologies will also be projected. A detailed discussion shall be presented on the analytical models developed to define the dynamics of the cold water pipe. Analytical results shall be compared to model test and at-sea test data to indicate the validity of the design tools in predicting pipe motions and stresses.
