Thermodynamics of an OWC containing real gas [PDF]
, 2017 Oscillating Water Column (OWC) devices are usually modelled as simple systems containing ideal, dry air. However, high humidity levels are likely to occur in a prototype device open to the sea, particularly in warm climates such as prevail in the lower ...

On thermodynamics in the primary power conversion of oscillating water column wave energy converters [PDF]
, 2015 The paper presents an investigation to the thermodynamics of the air flow in the air chamber for the oscillating water column wave energy converters, in which the oscillating water surface in the water column pressurizes or de-pressurises the air in the ...

Basin Research, Volume 37, Issue 5, September–October 2025.Depositional evolution of the upper Miocene complex. ABSTRACT To achieve net‐zero carbon emissions by 2050, gigatonnes of CO2 must be captured and stored in the subsurface. Screening and exploration of prospective storage sites have thus gained momentum in recent years.
