Through the TEAMER program, Sandia National Laboratories (SNL) collaborated with IDOM Incorporated to study their MARMOK-Oscillating Water Column (MARMOK-OWC) wave energy conversion device. The study yielded a quantitative understanding of hydrodynamic pressures on the oscillating water column (OWC) device surfaces, the mooring tensions, and the dynamic performance of the device under extreme ocean wave conditions. This project utilized a comprehensive multi-phase Navier-Stokes flow solver with an overset body-fit mesh to predict fluid velocities and hydrodynamic forces on the MARMOK-OWC device. Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis were conducted using OpenFOAM. This data includes the OpenFOAM cases (setup and data) to run the extreme events developed during the project. This project is part of the TEAMER RFTS 4 (request for technical support) program.
