An Oscillating Water Column (OWC): The Wave Energy Converter
Journal of The Institution of Engineers (India): Series C, 2021Ocean waves are a valuable resource of renewable energy that can make a significant contribution to the supply of electricity to countries situated offshore when used in great measure. An extensive range of innovations was proposed, investigated, and assessed in some cases under actual ocean conditions. OWC devices are an important class of wave energy

Performance analysis of sea wave power plant oscillating water column system (SWPP-OWC)
AIP Conference Proceedings, 2022One of the technological devices that can be used to generate electricity from ocean waves is the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) system. This system utilizes the rising and falling motion of the water in the air column to turn turbines and generate electricity.

The ocean waves are important source of renewable energy. However, the ocean provides very adverse environment for any kind of machine. Most of the studies are carried out to improve the efficiency of the wave energy converters (WEC) but how do they perform under adverse scenario is still an unexplored area of research.

Wave Running on the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) Breakwater Model
Engineering HeadwayIt is important to make innovations to design a breakwater model that also functions as a wave energy catcher, a space that creates resonance based on wave characteristics that produce more massive airflow. It is necessary to estimate the maximum wave runup on the OWC breakwater structure to see the runoff that occurs with certain wave conditions and ...

Analysis of Thin Walls Oscillating Water Columns (OWC) by Potential Methods and Model Testing
Volume 9: Odd M. Faltinsen Honoring Symposium on Marine Hydrodynamics, 2013The present work is dedicated to the behavior of an internal oscillating water column (OWC) under the external incidence of waves. The oscillation of the OWC is a subject of strong research interest since it can be applied to clean energy generation and also offshore exploitation.

2016 IEEE International Conference on Power and Energy (PECon), 2016
This paper presents the performance analysis and improvement of electric power generation for Oscillating Water Colum (OWC) wave energy converter using Finite Element Analysis (FEA). The existing power take-off system in OWC is based on induction machines which not only suffer from poor efficiency but require significant maintenance also.
