Novel control of a permanent magnet linear generator for ocean wave energy applications

Creator:

VanderMeulen, Aaron H.

Abstract:

Wave energy conversion devices are a rapidly growing interest worldwide for the potential to harness a sustainable and renewable energy source. Due to the oscillatory nature of ocean waves, the power generated from a permanent magnet linear generator (PMLG) for ocean wave energy conversion is pulsed. Focusing on direct drive...

Novel design and implementation of a permanent magnet linear tubular generator for ocean wave energy conversion

Creator:

Prudell, Joseph H.

Abstract:

The world’s energy consumption is growing at an alarming rate and the need for renewable energy is apparent now more than ever. Estimates have shown that optimization of the extraction of energy from the ocean could significantly aid the world’s quest for sustainable and affordable energy services for all. From...
