Abstract

This data set was collected from a 16k gallon single paddle type wave tank after adjustments were made to the transfer function in the control software. The file names describe the commanded wave height and period which can then be compared with the actual measured height and period of the generated waves.

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".
RM3 Wave Tank Validation Model

Dataset Candon, Charles ; Fao, Rebecca

An approximately 1/75th scale point absorber wave energy absorber was built to validate the testing systems of a 16k gallon single paddle wave tank. The model was build based on the RM3 design and incorporated a linear position sensor, a force transducer, and wetness detection sensors. The data set also includes motion tracking data of the device's two bodies acquired from 4x Qualisys cameras. The tank wave spectrum is measured by 4 ultrasonic water height sensors.
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.
M3 Wave DMP/APEX WEC Wave Tank Testing Final Raw Dataset

Dataset Morrow, Mike ; Delos-Reyes, Mike ; Lomenaco, Pedro

Complete dataset from wave tank testing for the Delos-Reyes Morrow Pressure Device (DMP), commercialized by M3 Wave LLC as "APEX". Subdirectories include Readme files where appropriate to aid in navigation.
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.
