Reynolds-Averaged Navier–Stokes simulation of the heave performance of a two-body floating-point absorber wave energy system
This paper presents a recent numerical study conducted by researchers at the National Renewable Energy Laboratory on a point absorber wave energy conversion (WEC) system using a Reynolds-averaged Navier–Stokes (RANS)-based Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) method. The device we studied was a two-body floating-point absorber (FPA) that operates predominantly in heave and generates energy from t...
متن کاملDifferent Model Predictive Control Approaches for Controlling Point Absorber Wave Energy Converters
Ocean wave energy is a promising renewable energy source that can be converted into useful electrical energy using wave energy converters (WECs). In order for WECs to become a commercially viable alternative to established methods of energy generation, operating the WEC in an optimal fashion is a key task. Thus, model predictive control (MPC) is an encouraging control method that exploits the e...
متن کاملOn the Short-term Uncertainty in Performance of a Point Absorber Wave Energy Converter
INTRODUCTION Of interest, in this study, is the quantification of uncertainty in the performance of a two-body wave point absorber (Reference Model 3 or RM3), which serves as a wave energy converter (WEC). We demonstrate how simulation tools may be used to establish short-term relationships between any performance parameter of the WEC device and wave height in individual sea states. We demonstr...
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 کاملthe role of russia in transmission of energy from central asia and caucuses to european union
پس ازفروپاشی شوروی،رشد منابع نفت و گاز، آسیای میانه و قفقاز را در یک بازی ژئوپلتیکی انرژی قرار داده است. با در نظر گرفتن این منابع هیدروکربنی، این منطقه به یک میدانجنگ و رقابت تجاری برای بازی های ژئوپلتیکی قدرت های بزرگ جهانی تبدیل شده است. روسیه منطقه را به عنوان حیات خلوت خود تلقی نموده و علاقمند به حفظ حضورش می باشد تا همانند گذشته گاز طبیعی را به وسیله خط لوله مرکزی دریافت و به عنوان یک واس...
