Constructal Design Applied to an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter Device under Realistic Sea State Conditions
In this work, we conducted a numerical analysis of an oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter (WEC) device. The main objective of this research was to conduct a geometric evaluation of the device by defining an optimal configuration that maximized its available hydrodynamic power while...
