Numerical simulation of a heave-only floating OWC (oscillating water column) device

Energy, 2014
Abstract This paper reports on the development of a two-dimensional, fully nonlinear CFD (Computational Fluid Dynamics) model with dynamic mesh to analyze the performance of a heave-only floating OWC (oscillating water column) device. The model was validated against previous experimental, analytical and numerical results on wave–air–structure ...

Wave Running on the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) Breakwater Model

Engineering Headway
It 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 ...
