Interactions Between an Oscillating Wave Surge Converter and a Heaving Wave Energy Converter
In this paper, we investigate the mutual hydrodynamic interactions between two different kinds of devices, namely, an Oscillating Wave Surge Converter modeled as an oscillating flap and a generic Heaving Wave Energy Converter modeled as a vertical truncated cylinder. A three-dimensional mathematical model based on linear potential flow theory is developed. It is assumed that the effects of the ...
متن کاملExperimental Evaluation of IRWEC1, a Novel Offshore Wave Energy Converter
This paper describes the innovative offshore point-absorber wave energy converter (WEC), IRWEC1, under development by the Hydrodynamics, Acoustics and Marine propulsion Group at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology. Totally enclosed in an outer shell, with no external moving parts, IRWEC1 is completely sealed which make it a robust and trustable system. Important motion for this WEC is the...
متن کاملOptimization of a Multi-pendulum Wave Energy Converter
In order to improve the energy capture efficiency of a multi-pendulum wave energy converter, a mathematical model of the pendulum structure has been built. The final structure parameters of the pendulum have been obtained by using genetic algorithm based on the numerical simulation results of the pendulum structure optimization. The results show that under obtained structure parameters the prop...
متن کاملInvestigation of the effect of geometry float body on the power of wave energy absorber converter using mooring catenary
This paper presents the effect of hydrodynamic parameters of the two-body converters of a point wave absorber on the amount of power output. This converter includes two submerged and floating bodies which are connected to the spring-damper system. The whole of the converter is connected to the sea bed by mooring catenary. The relative displacement of the floating body and the submerged body is ...
متن کاملPeak-power control of a grid-integrated oscillating water column wave energy converter
A critical characteristic of most WECs (wave energy converters) is the large peak-to-average power ratio. This poses many challenges to the design of high-efficient PTO (power take-off) systems and, even more importantly, to integrate this form of renewable energy into power grids. The OWC (oscillating water column) WECs are devices whose PTO uses an air turbine as the primary energy converter....
