主 题:Adaptive bistable Point absorber Power capture Parametric study
摘 要:The power capture performance of an adaptive bistable point absorber wave energy converter(WEC)in irregular waves is investigated in this *** on the linear potential flow theory and Cummins equations,the equation of motion for the WEC is established in time *** a parametric study is performed on the power capture performance of the WEC by considering the influences of different wave and system parameters such as the spring combination parameter,the stiffness of auxiliary springs and main springs,the original length value of the main spring,damping coefficient of the PTO systems and the significant wave *** results show that in an irregular wave,each parameter will have a certain impact on the performance of the *** device parameters need to be selected according to actual environmental parameters to ensure that the adaptive bistable WEC has better power capture performance than its linear and conventional bistable counterparts.
