Resumen
A novel float-type device for wave energy power generation, designed specifically for offshore wave environments, is introduced as an innovative technology in wave energy utilization. Herein, we present the design concept, structural composition, and energy conversion process of the device, and conduct mathematical modeling and theoretical research on its kinematic and dynamic characteristics. At the same time, we use a numerical wave pool based on the STAR-CCM+ boundary wave making method and damping dissipation method to analyze the motion response and output power of the wave energy generator in a five-order Stokes wave environment within one wave cycle and the entire operating cycle. Finally, in order to develop the best design strategy, we study the effect of changing the structural parameters of the power generation device on the hydrodynamic performance of the device.
