Line Force and Damping at Full and Partial Stator Overlap in a Linear Generator for Wave Power

A full scale linear generator for wave power has been experimentally evaluated by measuring the line force and translator position throughout the full translator stroke. The measured line force, in relation to translator speed, generator damping and stator overlap, has been studied by comparing the...
