A Study of the Hydrodynamic Performance of a Pitch-type Wave Energy Converter–Rotor
The effect of hydrodynamic performance of the wave energy converter (WEC)–rotor based on linear potential flow theory due to nonlinear viscous damping was investigated. Free decay tests were conducted using computational fluid dynamics (CFD) to obtain the viscous damping moment. The common...
