Anaconda WEC test
To further enhance our understanding of the resonant response of the flexible tube wave energy converter (WEC) in waves, a series of wave tank tests were conducted for a 3.52m long tube at the Kelvin…
Large Water Tank Test
Large-Scale OWC Testing: Analyzing Membrane Deformation As part of the BASM-WEC project, we are excited to share the results of our first experiment conducted at the Kelvin Hydrodynamics Lab’s large water tank. Our team installed…
Small water tank test
Small-Scale OWC Experimentation This test was performed for some goals such as: The following figure shows the OWC device (with 20 cm diameter and 1 m height) set up in the small water tank. Due…
Test rig
Designing a New Test Rig: Due to some limitations in the water tank tests (especially the amount of pressure), we decided to design and build a new test rig for purposes such as: The assessment…
