Hydraulic PTO model emulator for WEC tank tests

open access: yes2018 International Symposium on Power Electronics, Electrical Drives, Automation and Motion (SPEEDAM), 2018
In order to accelerate the overall power take off (PTO) design effort and to cheaply evaluate alternative designs, the construction of the real hydraulic PTO can be replaced with the design of a hydraulic PTO model emulator. This has the added advantage that it can be applied at model testing scales, where real hydraulic hardware would not give ...

Optimal operation of dielectric elastomer wave energy converters under harmonic and stochastic excitation

open access: yesGAMM-Mitteilungen, Volume 46, Issue 2, June 2023., 2023
Abstract Dielectric elastomers are a promising technology for wave energy harvesting. An optimal system operation can allow maximizing the extracted energy and, simultaneously, reducing wear that would lead to a reduction in the wave harvester lifetime.

Enhancing Thermo‐Osmotic Low‐Grade Heat Recovery by Applying a Negative Pressure to the Feed

open access: yesGlobal Challenges, Volume 7, Issue 4, April 2023., 2023
Thermo‐osmotic energy conversion is supposed to convert low‐grade heat into power. The efficiency can be improved by applying negative pressure to the feed liquid. The theoretical calculation, computational fluid dynamics simulation, and experiments are carried out to verify the method.

Direct‐Drive wave energy conversion with linear generator: A review of research status and challenges

open access: yesIET Renewable Power Generation, Volume 17, Issue 4, Page 1020-1034, 16 March 2023., 2023
Abstract Ocean wave energy is sustainable and renewable energy, wave energy conversion (WEC) effectively solves the disadvantage of traditional power system with fossil energy. WEC system is the power generation process that converts wave kinetic energy of undulation and swing into electric energy, and direct‐drive WEC system (D‐DWEC) converts wave ...

Performance Evaluation of the Air‐Type Photovoltaic‐Thermal Collector Combined with Transverse Triangle Obstacle

open access: yesInternational Journal of Energy Research, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023
An air‐type photovoltaic‐thermal collector (PVTC) is a solar collector that generates heated air and electricity from the incident solar energy in a single system. Adding a heat transfer device to this PVTC improves its performance but also increases the power consumption of the fan.

An Improved Hydraulic Power Take-Off Unit Based on Dual Fluid Energy Storage for Reducing the Power Fluctuation Problem in the Wave Energy Conversion System

open access: yesJournal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2022
The power take-off (PTO) stability is one of the most important concerns for wave energy converters (WECs). The PTO unit converts the mechanical energy produced by the wave absorber (WA) unit into useful electrical energy. Due to the drastic input energy
