摘要
The extraction of energy from ocean waves has been investigated in Europe since the 1970s. Hundreds of devices have been proposed, many have been tested in some form or other and a few of these have been commercialized. In this paper a gyroscopic wave energy converter is studied and a procedure to design a prototype model to be tested at the wave tank at the University of Edinburgh is outlined. A linearized model of the device is extrapolated and used as a mathematical tool in the design process. The final version of the prototype model is verified using the complete nonlinear model.
