  4. 3. Time-domain modeling of a wave power farm

    Författare :Charitini Stavropoulou; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : In this work, we model a point absorber wave energy converter (WEC) very similar to the device that originated and was developed at Uppsala University in Sweden. The device is simulated both as a one- and a two-body model. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Adaptation of wave power plants to regions with high tides

    Författare :Mohd Nasir Ayob; Rafael Waters; Johan Abrahamsson; Ian Masters; Uppsala universitet; []
    Nyckelord :TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Wave energy; Tides; Wave Hub; Lysekil research site; Control system; Tidal compensator; Wave energy converter.; Engineering Science with specialization in Science of Electricity; Teknisk fysik med inriktning mot elektricitetslära;

    Sammanfattning : The wave energy converter (WEC) developed at Uppsala University is based on the concept of a heaving point absorber with a linear generator placed on the seafloor. The translator inside the generator oscillates in a linear fashion and is connected via a steel wire to a point absorbing buoy. LÄS MER
