Abstract

The results of previous works on the wave energy conversion do not seem to be satisfactory due to irregularity, and the non-linear hydrodynamic effect which is inevitably featured due to the structural complexity of the ocean wave energy conversion device. These may cause the difficulty estimating the extracted wave power. In this paper a study on estimating the extracted wave power and its ratio. The present authors have developed another method estimating the extracted wave power using the three dimensional source distribution method, which was turned out to be an improved one. It has been observed that the present results may be used for the control of the wave energy conversion device and the optimal design has been derived from the several case studies.
