Wave Dragon wave-wind project

Proceedings of the European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference
Wave Dragon wave-wind project Wave power is more consistent than wind-, solar- and tidal power. Wave is at the same time more predictable than wind and solar. The paper assesses the economic performance of the different wave energy converter (WEC) types and discusses the possibility for WECs to match the levelized cost of energy for offshore wind ...

Slow waves, sharp waves, ripples, and REM in sleeping dragons

Science, 2016
The dragon sleeps tonight Most animal species sleep, from invertebrates to primates. However, neuroscientists have until now only actively recorded the sleeping brains of birds and mammals. Shein-Idelson et al.

Wave Dragon

2008
Since March 2003 a prototype of Wave Dragon has been tested in an inland sea in Denmark. This has been a great success with all subsystems tested and improved through working in an offshore environment. The project has proved the Wave Dragon device and has enabled the next stage, a production sized version.

Wave Overtopping Characteristics of the Wave Dragon

2006
Simulation work has been used extensively with the Wave dragon and other overtopping devices to analyse the power production performance of them and to optimise the structural design and the control strategy. A time domain approach to this is well documented in Jakobsen & Frigaard 1999.

Life cycle assessment of the wave energy converter: Wave Dragon [PDF]

open access: possible, 2007
Any power production technology should be able to demonstrate that it's able to comply with current and future environmental regulation and that it demonstrates a considerable surplus in the energy balance being a part of the entire power system. This means that the energy used throughout all the lifecycle stages; from provision of materials over ...

Design of a 1.5MW Wave Dragon

2013
The paper discusses results of regular wave tests conducted at the University of Naples “Federico II” with the purpose of investigating the qualitative features and the magnitude of the wave pressures acting onto the front face of a Seawave Slot-Cone Generator (SSG).

Evaluation of Hydraulic Response of the Wave Dragon

1999
The present study investigates the hydraulic response of the wave energy converter Wave Dragon. This is done by peforming model tests in a wave tank in the Hydraulics & Coastal Engineering Laboratory at Aalborg University. In the model tests a floating scale model (length scale 1:50) of the Wave Dragon is subjected to irregular, long crested ...

Wave Dragon MW:final summary report

2009
Wave Dragon is a wave energy converter of the overtopping type. The device has been thoroughly tested on a 1:51.8 scale model in wave laboratories and a 1:4.5 scale model deployed in Nissum Bredning, a large inland waterway in Denmark. Based on the experience gained a full scale, multi MW prototype is to be constructed and deployed in the North Sea (or

Wave Dragon Buoyancy Regulation Study

2005
Wave Dragon is a wave energy converter, which was deployed offshore at Nissum Bredning in Denmark in 2003. The experience gained from operating Wave Dragon during 2003 and 2004 has shown that the buoyancy regulation system can be improved in a number of ways.

Wave Dragon Wave Energy Converters Used as Coastal Protection

2011
This paper deals with wave energy converters used to reduce the wave height along shorelines. For this study the Wave Dragon wave energy converter is chosen. The wave height reduction from a single device has been evaluated from physical model tests in scale 1:51.8 of the 260 x 150 m, 24 kW/m model.
