Description

The electromagnetic resonant power take-off consists of a high gear-ratio magnetic gear generator and an adjustable magnetic spring. The project will complete open-water component testing at pacwave-south and validate the performance capabilities of the electromagnetic resonant power take-off technology to a technical readiness level of 8. To mitigate risk, laboratory testing and water-tank testing at oregon state university will also be conducted. The testing aims to show that by using the electromagnetic resonant power take-off, with conjugate control techniques, the wave energy converter is capable of generating power with a peak-to-average power ratio of only 3:1.
