    Sammanfattning : The motion of ocean waves can be captured and converted into usable electricity. This indicates that wave power has the potential to supply electricity to grids like wind or solar power. A point absorbing wave energy converter (WEC) system has been developed for power production at Uppsala University. LÄS MER

  4. 23. Simulation of Irregular Waves and Wave Induced Loads on Wind Power Plants in Shallow Water

    Författare :Jenny Trumars; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; wave load; Non-linear wave models; ocean engineering; wind energy converter; perturbation theory; shallow water;

    Sammanfattning : The essay gives a short introduction to waves and discusses the problem with non-linear waves in shallow water and how they effect an offshore wind energy converter. The focus is on the realisation of non-linear waves in the time domain from short-term statistics in the form of a variance density spectrum of the wave elevation. LÄS MER

    Sammanfattning : Different wave power technologies are in development around the world in different stages of prototype testing. So far only a few devices have been deployed offshore at full scale for extended periods of time. Little data is published about how these different devices perform. LÄS MER

  7. 25. Electrical Systems for Wave Energy Conversion

    Författare :Cecilia Boström; Mats Leijon; Daniel Karlsson; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :Wave power; direct driven linear generators; electrical systems; non-linear loads; TECHNOLOGY; TEKNIKVETENSKAP; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : Wave energy is a renewable energy source with a large potential to contribute to the world's electricity production. There exist several technologies on how to convert the energy in the ocean waves into electric energy. The wave energy converter (WEC) presented in this thesis is based on a linear synchronous generator. LÄS MER
