  3. Ocean Power – Rack & Rake Wheel Introduction • The World is facing the continuous challenge of supplying enough energy to fuel economic growth. • Est. Ocean currents can meet 3000 times the current power needs of the entire World’s population. • Waves energy alone can potentially produce one third of the World’s electricity supply.

  4. Ocean Power – Rack & Rake Wheel Concept M/S IP Management Pte Ltd has invented a double acting Racks & Rake Wheel fluid current energy converter device to tap kinetic energy of Ocean, river and wind currents.

  5. Ocean Power – Rack & Rake Wheel Mechanical devices • Moveable device - Double acting rack 1) Vertical racks 2) Curved racks 3) Horizontal racks 4) Planar circular racks 5) Ring racks

  8. Wave Power Reference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia • Waves are generated by wind passing over the surface of the sea. • As long as the waves propagate slower than the wind speed just above the waves, there is an energy transfer from the wind to the waves.

  9. Wave Power Reference - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Wave power formula Example: Consider moderate ocean swells, in deep water, a few km off a coastline, with a wave height of 3 meters and a wave period of 8 seconds. Using the formula to solve for power, we get meaning there are 36 kilowatts of power potential per meter of wave crest.

  10. WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER IN SHALLOW WATER The maximum power capture of a floating buoy is given by (Matt Folley, et al, 2005 1) P = ½ F .. x (1- ½ r) where F - is the wave force X - is the amplitude of motion r - is the ratio of amplitude of motion to optimum amplitude of motion 1Matt Folley, Trevor Whittaker, Alan Henry, 6th European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference,Glasgow, UK August 29th - September 2nd 2005 When the motion is highly constrained, r ---> 0, then the power capture is proportional to the incident wave force, not the incident wave power intensity given above. This is evident for shallow water converters where the water depth is less than a quarter of the wave wavelength.

  11. Power Capture of a Floating Buoy The power capture of a floating buoy is also given by (Evans, 1985 2) where •  - is the applied hydrodynamic damping coefficient (in Ns/m) •  - is the angular velocity (in rad/s) • X - is the amplitude of motion (in m) 2 Evans D.
