Azura WEC 1/15th Wave Tank Test Data

Dataset Ling, Bradley A

Test data from the 1/15th Wave Tank Tests of the Azura performed in 2017/2018 to validate the power performance and survivability of the Azura Design planned for deployment at the US Navy's Wave Energy Test Site. Raw and processed data included, along with test plan, test report, and summary data in the content model: "WEC Lab Testing content Model".
NWEI Azura RTI 1/20th Model Validation Wave Tank Test Data

Dataset Ling, Bradley ; Lettenmaier, Terry

Data from the 1/20th wave tank test of the RTI model. NWEI has licensed intellectual property from RTI, and modified the PTO and retested the 1/20th RTI model that was tested as part of the Wave Energy Prize. The goal of the test was to validate NWEI's simulation models of the model. The test occurred at the University of Maine in Orono.
Wave Tank Testing of 1-DoF Heaving Buoy for Controls Validation Purposes

Dataset Previsic, Mirko ; Son, Daewoong ; Karthikeyan, Anantha ; ...

This submission includes the wave tank testing data used to validate the controls optimization efforts of a heaving 1-DoF buoy.
Triton Point Absorber 1:30 Scale Tank Test Data for Extreme Wave Environments

Dataset Mundon, Tim ; Rosenberg, Brian

This content model summarizes laboratory testing data for the Oscilla Power Triton WEC conducted at 1:30 scale. The WEC was tested in large operational waves and in extreme wave conditions along the 1 in 50 year wave contour at the DoE reference location in Humbolt Bay, CA. The WEC was tested in both its operational configuration and its survival configuration. The aims of the dataset are (i) To demonstrate that the survival strategy developed for the Triton WEC improves survivability and reduces loads in extreme wave environments, and (ii) To determine the ultimate design loads for the WEC.
