Ocean Wave Energy
Preliminary Ocean Wave Energy Web (OWEB) perspective view shows the operation of an interconnected OWEC® module array. Submerged array portions are suspended at depths permitting full reciprocation of buoys and respective driveshafts.Optional damper plates may be used as sea anchors so that only light bottom, slack mooring is required to keep an array at a particular station. Wave activity on buoys induces relative motion between driveshafts and remaining module portions to drive novel transmissions and electrical generators.
