Abstract

The present paper describes experimental studies in an irregular wave tank concerning a 1/35 scale model of a bottomstanding wave power plant of the oscillating-water-column (OWC) type, to be built spanning a small natural harbour in the island of Pico (Azores). The purposes of the experiments were to determine the power plant''s most suitable location, geometry and dimensions, as well as to allow the overall characteristics of the mechanical and electrical equipment to be optimized, and to provide the experimental data required to estimate the annual production of energy.

Model-Test Optimization Of An OWC Wave Power Plant is located in Portugal.
