11. Wave Energy Converters : An experimental approach to onshore testing, deployments and offshore monitoring
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
12. Energy from Ocean Waves : Full Scale Experimental Verification of a Wave Energy Converter
Sammanfattning : A wave energy converter has been constructed and its function and operational characteristics have been thoroughly investigated and published. The wave energy converter was installed in March of 2006 approximately two kilometers off the Swedish west coast in the proximity of the town Lysekil. LÄS MER
13. Wave Energy Conversion : Linear Synchronous Permanent Magnet Generator
Sammanfattning : This thesis studies the electric aspects of a linear synchronous permanent magnet generator. The generator is designed for use in a wave energy converter, which determines the fundamental requirements of the generator. The electromagnetic properties of the generator are investigated with a finite element based simulation tool. LÄS MER
14. Modelling and Experimental Verification of Direct Drive Wave Energy Conversion : Buoy-Generator Dynamics
Sammanfattning : This thesis is focused on development of models and modelling of a wave energy converter in operation. Through the thesis linear potential wave theory has been used to describe the wave-buoy interaction. The differences lie in the generator models, in the simplest model the generator is a mechanical damper characterized by a damping factor. LÄS MER
15. Offshore deployments of marine energy converters
Sammanfattning : The depletion warning of non-renewable resources, such as gas, coal and oil, and the imminent effects of climate change turned the attention to clean and fossil fuel-free generated electricity. University research groups worldwide are studying solar, wind, geothermal, biomass and ocean energy harvesting. LÄS MER
