Numerical hydrodynamic analysis of an offshore stationary–floating oscillating water column–wave energy converter using CFD
Offshore oscillating water columns (OWC) represent one of the most promising forms of wave energy converters. The hydrodynamic performance of such converters heavily depends on their interactions with ocean waves; therefore, understanding these interactions is essential. In this paper, a fully nonli...
