Abstract:Sea waves are an important source of environmental energy which can be converted into energy needed for different purposes. In current study, a floatingpoint absorber (FPA) wave energy converter is simulated, built, and tested. The system is modeled through a two-body system with two degrees of freedom in the heave direction. Modeling hydrodynamic system has been done in ANSYS-AQWA software. In order to obtain the resonance condition and the maximum power of the system, the values of the hydraulic parameters w… Show more
