波浪能利用装置一般是利用振动来获取波浪能量,如鸭式装置、点吸收式装置。点吸收技术是世界上目前研究得比较热门的一类波浪能利用技术,漂浮直驱式波能装置是点吸收技术的一种。文章首先通过物理过程分析,把由双圆柱浮体构成的漂浮直驱式波浪能装置当成一个双自由度振动系统,建立系统振动方程;然后,运用势流理论求解由双圆柱浮体的垂荡辐射问题和绕射问题,求解出振动分析所需要的水动力学参数。考虑波浪能装置通过粘性阻尼吸收波浪能,利用求得的水动力学参数,设定的外部阻尼和弹簧弹性系数,可求解出此情况下水面浮体和水下浮体的相对运动幅值,进而求得装置的转换效率。给定模型尺寸参数,在一些确定的外部阻尼值和弹簧弹性系数点,分别通过变化外部阻尼和弹簧弹性系数,分析装置的振动特性以及转换效率的变化,从而在不同波况下选择适合装置的外部阻尼系数和弹簧弹性系数。 相似文献

The spar torus combination (STC) concept is a combined wind and wave energy converter concept that is composed of a spar floating wind turbine and a torus-shaped, heaving-body wave energy converter (WEC). The WEC is installed on the spar floater. Wave power can be absorbed by a power-take off (PTO) system through the relative heave motions between spar and torus. Numerical model was established to predict dynamic responses of the STC concept under different sea states. To validate the numerical model, a model test of the STC concept under operational conditions was performed. A two-body physical model at a 1:50 scaling ratio was built. A series of tests were performed to assess the performance of the concept. During the tests, different PTO damping levels were applied. When large power output was achieved, air compressibility of the PTO damper in the model matters, making relevant a suitable nonlinear PTO modeling in the numerical simulations. Wind conditions were considered to model the effect of the thrust force on the rotor using a wind drag disc. Numerical and experimental results are presented and compared. Good agreements are achieved. 相似文献

This paper proposes a model considering the wave‐current interactions in dynamic analyses of floating offshore wind turbines (FOWTs) and investigates the interaction effects on the FOWT responses. Waves when traveling on current are affected by the current, leading to frequency shift and shape modification. To include such interactions in FOWT analysis, which has not been considered by the researchers till date, a nonlinear hydrodynamic model for multicable mooring systems is presented that is able to consider the cable geometric nonlinearity, seabed contact, and the current effect. The mooring model is then coupled with a spar‐type FOWT model that handles the structural dynamics of turbine blades and tower, aerodynamics of the wind‐blade interaction, and wave‐current effects on the spar. The analytical wave‐current interaction model based on Airy theory considering the current effect is used in the computation of flow velocity and acceleration. Numerical studies are then carried out based on the NREL offshore 5‐MW baseline wind turbine supported on top of the OC3‐Hywind spar buoy. Two cases, (1) when the currents are favorable and (2) when the currents are adverse, are examined. Differences of up to 15% have been observed by comparing the cable fairlead tension obtained excluding and including the wave‐current interactions. In particular, when irregular waves interact with adverse current, a simple superposition treatment of the wave and the current effects seems to underestimate the spar motion and the cable fairlead tension. This indicates that the wave‐current interaction is an important aspect and is needed to be considered in FOWT analysis. 相似文献

This paper presents a hybridized triboelectric‐electromagnetic generator based on heaving point absorbers to harvest the energy of water waves. The device consists of a cylindrical freestanding grating triboelectric generator (TENG) and a 3‐phase tubular electromagnetic generator (EMG). The proposed system incorporates a slider which is capable of moving through a stator under the motion of a floating buoy. The floating component can heave up and down while facing water waves without being affected by the wave direction. The performance of the TENG and EMG units and corresponding electrical outputs are evaluated under various structural, dynamical, and electrical conditions. It is shown that the number of segments in the TENG unit, phase number in the EMG unit, and motion frequency in both harvesters are the key elements in the outputs of the hybridized system. For the first time, the effect of irregular wave motion on the TENG harvester performance is systematically explored using a well‐known wave spectrum. Also, the performance of the hybridized system for charging a storage unit is evaluated in details. The presented energy harvester shows a great potential toward harvesting the energy of water waves as well as hydrodynamic sensing applications. In addition, this research provides a framework for the exploration of irregular wave motion in TENG‐based energy harvesters. 相似文献

To convert wave energy into usable forms of energy by utilizing heaving body, heaving bodies (buoys) which are buoyant in nature and float on the water surface are usually used. The wave exerts excess buoyancy force on the buoy, lifting it during the approach of wave crest while the gravity pulls it down during the wave trough. A hydraulic, direct or mechanical power takeoff is used to convert this up and down motion of the buoy to produce usable forms of energy. Though using a floating buoy for harnessing wave energy is conventional, this device faces many challenges in improving the overall conversion efficiency and survivability in extreme conditions. Up to the present, no studies have been done to harness ocean waves using a non-floating object and to find out the merits and demerits of the system. In the present paper, an innovative heaving body type of wave energy converter with a non-floating object was proposed to harness waves. It was also shown that the conversion efficiency and safety of the proposed device were significantly higher than any other device proposed with floating buoy. To demonstrate the improvements, experiments were conducted with non-floating body for different dimensions and the heave response was noted. Power generation was not considered in the experiment to observe the worst case response of the heaving body. The device was modeled in artificial neural network (ANN), the heave response for various parameters were predicted, and compared with the experimental results. It was found that the ANN model could predict the heave response with an accuracy of 99%. 相似文献

This work presents a comprehensive dynamic–response analysis of three offshore floating wind turbine concepts. Models were composed of one 5 MW turbine supported on land and three 5 MW turbines located offshore on a tension leg platform, a spar buoy and a barge. A loads and stability analysis adhering to the procedures of international design standards was performed for each model using the fully coupled time domain aero‐hydro‐servo‐elastic simulation tool FAST with AeroDyn and HydroDyn. The concepts are compared based on the calculated ultimate loads, fatigue loads and instabilities. The loads in the barge‐supported turbine are the highest found for the three floating concepts. The differences in the loads between the tension leg platform–supported turbine and spar buoy–supported turbine are not significant, except for the loads in the tower, which are greater in the spar system. Instabilities in all systems also must be resolved. The results of this analysis will help resolve the fundamental design trade‐offs between the floating‐system concepts.

The performance of oscillating water column (OWC) systems depends on a number of factors in a complex manner. The objective of this work is to analyse the influence of the wave conditions, the damping caused by the turbine and the tidal level on the efficiency of the conversion from wave to pneumatic energy that occurs in the OWC chamber. To achieve this, a comprehensive experimental campaign is carried out, involving in total 387 tests of a model OWC under varying wave conditions (both with regular and irregular waves), damping coefficients and tidal levels. It is found that the damping exerted by the turbine is the factor that most affects the chamber efficiency—even more than the wave conditions. It follows that a proper selection of the turbine is crucial not only to the performance of the turbine itself but also to that of the chamber, which reflects the importance of the turbine–chamber coupling in OWC systems. The next factor in order of importance is the wave period. Finally, we find that the influence of the tidal level, which is examined in this work for the first time, is significant under certain conditions. Copyright © 2014 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd. 相似文献
