1. 1. Design of a small-scale wave energy converter

   University essay from Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för elektroteknik

   Author : Sumaya Farjana; [2022]
   Keywords : small-scale point absorber; scaling factors; damping coefficient;

   Abstract : In this study, a small-scale point absorber wave energy converter has been designed contemplating a full-scaled point absorber in the Mediterranean Sea state. The scaling factor for the small-scaled version has been determined by the damping coefficient calculation of the power take-off in 1:10, 1:15, and 1:20 scaling factors. READ MORE
