Investigation of the dynamics of a multibody wave energy converter excited by regular and irregular waves
Investigation of the dynamics of a multibody wave energy converter excited by regular and irregular waves
The dynamics and the performance of a novel multibody wave energy converter
is investigated, which is based on inclined single modules connected
to a frame. The frame floats on the sea surface and the modules each move
translationally along inclined guidance rods. Direct-drive linear generators
or rotation based generators convert the relative translational motion between
the frame and the modules into electrical power. This paper studies
the conditions which influence the performance of the converters in regular
and irregular waves. Different design layouts are investigated numerically,
whereby the wave excitation is modelled by a random non-white Gaussian
stochastic process.

Abstract
The dynamics and the performance of a novel multibody wave energy converter
is investigated, which is based on inclined single modules connected
to a frame. The frame floats on the sea surface and the modules each move
translationally along inclined guidance rods. Direct-drive linear generators
or rotation based generators convert the relative translational motion between
the frame and the modules into electrical power. This paper studies
the conditions which influence the performance of the converters in regular
and irregular waves. Different design layouts are investigated numerically,
whereby the wave excitation is modelled by a random non-white Gaussian
stochastic process.
