In the OWEL-Surrey project, mathematical models are being developed for simulating the dynamics, interior sloshing, power take off, and control of the OWEL WEC. In the Surrey sloshing project, shallow water equations for sloshing in 2D and 3D vessels undergoing translation and rotation, are derived.

The OWEL wave energy converter is a floating rectangular device open at one end to capture the incoming wave field. The trapped waves in the duct hit the upper rigid lid and create a seal resulting in a moving trapped pocket of air ahead of the wave front which drives the power take off.

Feb 5, 2016 · The Offshore Wave Energy Ltd wave energy convertor (OWEL WEC) is a floating rectangular box which captures waves at one end and extracts their energy though a power take off (PTO) system at the other end. The Surrey team is providing underpinning modelling and mathematics to this project.

ow eld in OWEL is very similar to a gravity-current con guration. The purpose of this document is to review gravity current theory and propose a theoretical and experimental strategy for adapting and modifying existing gravity current theory to the OWEL setting. c Department of Mathematics, University of Surrey 2015 1

Jan 1, 2014 · The OWEL (Offshore Wave Energy Limited) wave energy converter is a floating, moored device that uses incident, deep water waves to compress air and drive an air turbine. It is designed to be deployed offshore in energetic deep water locations.

OWEL - a subsidiary of the renewable energy consultancy ITP - are actively seeking financial investment to help the WEC progress from R&D to full commercialisation.

Jul 1, 2019 · Our motivation for studying wetting and drying of two-layer shallow-water flows is the deep ocean wave energy converter (WEC) patented by Offshore Wave Energy Ltd (OWEL). The OWEL WEC is essentially a rectangular box which has an opening at one end allowing waves to enter the device.

Jun 1, 2013 · By using a linear generator/alternator, the periodic piston motion of the wave energy conversion system (WEC) can be converted to AC voltage with variable RMS amplitude and frequency; this...
