Summary: | 碩士 === 國立高雄科技大學 === 造船及海洋工程系 === 107 === The ocean surface area is about 70% of the Earth and the ocean energy is one of the potential energy in the ocean renewable energy. This study aims to design, develop and construct an oscillatory and buoyant wave energy acquisition system. The energy-generating system captures both the wave kinetic energy and the potential energy. Indeed, it catches the energy directly from the movement of floating body. The scaled model experiment is confirmed by its feasibility.
In this thesis, we design, test and analyze two sets of parameters in order to clarify the applications of utilizing in different practical cases. The energy is calculated based upon the captured images, and then analyzes the average power amount according to the motion of floating body and wave amplitude. The results of this study may provide a promising basis in continuously developing the wave-making energy device.
