Analysis of Mutriku's OWC performance

Proceedings of the European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference, 2023
An analysis of oscillating water columns (OWC) at the Mutriku Wave Power Plant to understand their efficiency in transforming ocean energy into electricity. The study aims to estimate the rate of convergence of wave energy flux to kilowatts hour of each OWC and determine whether it is more accurate to estimate for each OWC independently or as part of a

Implementation of an OWC channel emulator in FPGA

2018 11th International Symposium on Communication Systems, Networks & Digital Signal Processing (CSNDSP), 2018
This paper discusses the feasibility and implementation of a complete Optical Wireless Communications (OWC) system emulator. The emulating platform comprises the ability to model all the key aspects of an OWC system, such as the emitter, the channel and the receiver. In order to implement the proposed architecture, Field-Programmable Gate Arrays (FPGAs)

Overview of OWC Mathematical Model

2020
The OWC system is usually constructed on the shoreline of the ocean, as shown in Fig. 2.1 (Mishra et al. 2016d). The OWC consists of four walls. It is open at the bottom where the ocean waves hit. The OWC chamber is partly watered, while the top part of the column is filled with air.

Lighting Extra Data via OWC Dimming

Proceedings of the Student Workshop, 2020
Most OWC systems use LEDs as transmitters and in poor channel conditions adopt or switch to the most robust On-Off Keying (OOK) modulation from complex high-order modulation schemes that are fragile with more error bits in poor optical environments.

Ratcheting OWC in Torque Converters

SAE Technical Paper Series, 2013
<div class="section abstract"><div class="htmlview paragraph">This paper reviews ratcheting one way clutches (OWC). OWC represent a significant cost in a transmission. Optimizing the OWC type helps reduce cost and increase fuel efficiency, and is therefore worth studying. Although the ratcheting OWC design is the primary focus of this paper,

Control strategies for OWC wave power plants

Proceedings of the 2010 American Control Conference, 2010
The present work deals with the improvement of OWC-Wells turbine-generator systems by adequately choosing the applied control scheme. For this purpose, two different control strategies are presented and compared. In the first one, the control system does appropriately adapt the slip of the induction generator according to the pressure drop entry.

Development of the Kvaerner Multiresonant OWC

1986
This work is a contribution to a research and development activity carried out at the Norwegian Hydrotechnical Laboratory on contract from and in close co-operation with Kvaerner Brug A/S. Our main contribution to the development of cost-effective wave energy converters has been the introduction of a socalled harbour in front of the absorber which ...

Modeling and optimization of the chamber of OWC system

Energy, 2011
Abstract Due to their non-polluting nature and environment friendliness, Renewable Energies have gained great deal of attention and deserve a substantial body of both theoretical and empirical research. Amongst other factors, the low operational cost and simple maintenance procedures attributed the Oscillating Water Column (OWC) are perhaps the main ...
