Design Optimization of a Cross-Flow Air Turbine for an Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter

A cross-flow air turbine, which is a self-rectifying, air-driven turbine, was designed and proposed for the power take-off (PTO) system of an oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy converter (WEC). To predict the complicated non-linear behavior of the air turbine in the OWC, numerical and experi...
