2017 Wave energy converter movement model evaluation by wave height and frequency

Content of Experiment Analysis of characteristics of wave energy converter movement model by wave height and frequency - Replacing the worm gear, which was used in the previous experiment, to an epicyclic gear to increase the generating efficiency at lower water levels. - Applying the torque meter, power meter, and the DAQ system to precisely measure and verify the data. Condition of Experiment Water level 1.0m, Frequency 0.89~3.35sec, Wave height 2.5~17.5cm Purpose of Experiment : Analysis of the characteristics of the wave energy converter movement model by wave height and frequency Scene of the experiment: Full view (Video No.1) Scene of the experiment: (Video No.3) Scene of the experiment: Wave-power generator (Video No.4,5)
