Wave energy is a kind of clean that rich in reserves and has not been exploited on large scale. The slope-pendulum wave conversion (S-PWEC) device optimized structure its capture efficiency increased. Taking the selection Zhejiang sea area as research background, this paper performs numerical simulation array WEC experimental testing S-PWEC under 66 major conditions. results show adds slope to ...

Time-domain models are necessary for the analysis of wave energy conversion systems, due to the presence of nonlinearities which may not be neglected for accurate prediction of their performance and behaviour. Such nonlinearities are contributed in varying degrees by drag, Coulomb friction, fluid compressibility, and also control mechanism. In time-domain, the equations of motion for the system...

Modern energy demands led the scientific community to renewable energy sources, such as ocean wave energy. The present work describes a model for a cost efficient rotary electrical generator, optimized for ocean wave energy conversion. The electrical power, supplied by low speed mechanical movement, requires the use of electrical machinery capable of generating high amounts of torque. Among the...

Due to economic social cohesion, the European Union is promoting to improve the production of electrical energy from renewable energy sources. Sea waves have associated a form of renewable energy which can be captured by using a hydro mechanical device that in turn drives an electrical generator to produce electrical energy. After a brief description of wave formation and quantifying the power ...
