Experimental Evaluation of IRWEC1, a Novel Offshore Wave Energy Converter
This paper describes the innovative offshore point-absorber wave energy converter (WEC), IRWEC1, under development by the Hydrodynamics, Acoustics and Marine propulsion Group at Babol Noshirvani University of Technology. Totally enclosed in an outer shell, with no external moving parts, IRWEC1 is completely sealed which make it a robust and trustable system. Important motion for this WEC is the...
متن کاملFurther Development of Snl-swan, a Validated Wave Energy Converter Array Modeling Tool
Commercialization of wave energy will lead to the necessary deployment of Wave Energy Converters (WECs) in arrays, or wave farms. In order for projects in the United States to be approved, regulatory agencies must perform an Environmental Assessment proving little to no environmental impact. However, little is known about the environmental impacts of such wave farms. As a result, the environmen...

متن کاملPreliminary Verification and Validation of Wec-sim, an Open-source Wave Energy Converter Design Tool
To promote and support the wave energy industry, a wave energy converter (WEC) design tool, WEC-Sim, is being developed by Sandia National Laboratories and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory. In this paper, the WEC-Sim code is used to model a point absorber WEC designed by the U.S. Department of Energy’s reference model project. Preliminary verification was performed by comparing results ...
متن کاملCFD Modeling of TiO2 Nano-Agglomerates Hydrodynamics in a Conical Fluidized Bed Unit with Experimental Validation
In the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) modeling of gas-solids two phase flow, the effect of boundary conditions play an important role in predicting the hydrodynamic characteristics of fluidized beds. In this work, the hydrodynamics of conical fluidized bed containing dried TiO2 nano-agglomerates were studied both experimentally and computationally. The pressure drop ...
