  1. 6. Numerical Modelling and Mechanical Studies on a Point Absorber Type Wave Energy Converter

    Författare :Yue Hong; Rafael Waters; Mikael Eriksson; Cecilia Boström; Jørgen Hals Todalshaug; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :linear generator; point absorber; numerical modelling; power production; optimal damping; Teknisk fysik; Engineering Science;

    Sammanfattning : Oceans cover two thirds of the Earth’s surface and the energy potential of ocean waves as a renewable energy source is huge. It would therefore be a tremendous achievement if the vast mechanical energy in waves was converted into a form of energy that could be used successfully by society. LÄS MER

  2. 7. Full Scale Applications of Permanent Magnet Electromagnetic Energy Converters : From Nd2Fe14B to Ferrite

    Författare :Boel Ekergård; Mats Leijon; Ronan costello; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY;

    Sammanfattning : This thesis presents research regarding a full scale linear ferrite permanent magnet generator, installed in a wave energy conversion system. The ferrite based magnetic circuit, supplementing the previous utilized Nd2Fe14B-magnet design, is designed with an electromagnetic numerical simulation tool, where the model is derived from Maxwell’s equations.

  3. 8. Wave Energy Converters : An experimental approach to onshore testing, deployments and offshore monitoring

    Författare :Liselotte Ulvgård; Mats Leijon; Jonny Hylander; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wave power; ocean energy; linear generator; measurements; sensors; point absorber; offshore; PTO; force; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : The wave energy converter (WEC) concept developed at Uppsala University consists of a point absorbing buoy, directly connected to a permanent magnet linear generator. Since 2006, over a dozen full scale WECs have been deployed at the Lysekil Research Site, on the west coast of Sweden. LÄS MER

  4. 9. Environmental Effects from Wave Power : Artificial Reefs and Incidental No-take Zones

    Sammanfattning : Marine renewable technologies have rapidly been developing over the past decade. Wave power is one of the renewable sources and has the potential securing the renewable electricity production. LÄS MER

  5. 10. Wave energy conversion and the marine environment : Colonization patterns and habitat dynamics

    Författare :Olivia Langhamer; Anders Berglund; Jan Sundberg; Andrew Gill; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :NATURVETENSKAP; NATURAL SCIENCES; artificial reefs; benthos; biodiversity; biofouling; colonization; environmental impact; fish; shellfish; Mytilus edulis; renewable energy; wave power; Biology; Biologi; Animal Ecology; Zooekologi;

    Sammanfattning : A wave energy park has been established on the Swedish west coast outside Lysekil and pioneer work about its interactions with the marine environment has been conducted. So far, little is known about the effects of offshore energy installations on the marine environment, and this thesis assists in minimizing environmental risks as well as in enhancing potential positive effects on the marine environment.
