Numerical Study on a Multibuoy-Type Wave Energy Converter With Hydraulic PTO System Under Real Sea Conditions

IEEE Journal of Oceanic Engineering, 2021
This study aims to investigate the power takeoff (PTO) performance of a two-buoy-type wave energy converter (WEC) with a PTO system under real sea conditions. The two-buoy-type WEC is composed of two hemispherical heaving buoys with a hydraulic PTO system. The hydrodynamic analysis considering two-body interaction is carried out based on the wave green

DEVELOPMENT OF A COMPUTER-CONTROLLED, HYDRAULIC, POWER TAKE-OFF (PTO) SYSTEM

Transactions of the ASAE, 2005
Nearly all tractor PTO arrangements used today consist of a rotating mechanical shaft with two or more universal joints. This arrangement continues to be an entanglement hazard. By driving the attachment with fluid power, this hazard could be eliminated.

Design and performance test of hydraulic PTO for wave energy converter

International Journal of Precision Engineering and Manufacturing, 2012
A PTO (power take-off) system for 50kW class rotating body type WEC (wave energy converter) has been designed, constructed and tested. The WEC has a semi-submerged, articulated structure composed of two cylindrical body sections linked together by a hinge joint.

A Power Take-Off (PTO) for Wave Energy Converters Based on the Hybrid Hydraulic-Electric Architecture (HHEA)

ASME/BATH 2021 Symposium on Fluid Power and Motion Control, 2021
Abstract Wave energy is a promising renewable energy resource for coastal regions around the world, but is not yet an economically competitive source of electricity. More effective power take-off (PTO) designs would help to make wave power a feasible and clean source of energy. To do this, PTOs need to: i) enable controlled actuation, ii)
