Co-Design of Marine Energy Converters for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Docking and Recharging - Test Data and Processing
This dataset contains experimental results from testing the Halona wave energy converter (WEC) in both fixed and floating configurations. This dataset reflects a 1/10th scale omnidirectional spar buoy oscillating water column (OWC) device, designed to improve platform stability for autonomous underwater vehicle (AUV) docking. Tests were conducted at the O.H. Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory's Directional Wave Basin, replicating field conditions anticipated for a full-scale deployment at Kilo Nalu, Oahu. The experiments included unidirectional and directional wave conditions, spanning regular and irregular waves, with varying power take-off (PTO) damping settings represented by different orifice plates. Data collected include differential pressure across orifice plates, six-degree-of-freedom motion capture, surface elevation, and mooring tension forces, with units clearly labeled and standardized. Data products include pressure, surface elevation, mooring tension, and PhaseSpace Motion response data, as well as normalized Response Amplitude Operators (RAOs), normalized chamber pressures, and capture efficiencies. Data are provided below in the zip files, with 'RNG' and 'Reg' identifiers for irregular and regular wave tests respectively, and are labelled with alpha values (percentage relating to opening ratio). Comprehensive MATLAB scripts for data analysis and figure generation are included. The tests support validation of OpenFOAM and ProteusDS models. Use of the dataset assumes familiarity with wave energy converter testing, MATLAB software, and standard hydrodynamic modeling practices. Results from this testing are detailed in publications by Ulm, Huang, and Cross (2023, 2024, and 2025). A Post Access Report summarizing the experimental methods and findings is also attached.

Data from Numerical Modeling of Halona Oscillating Water Column Wave Energy Converter for Autonomous Underwater Vehicle Docking
공공데이터포털
In this project, we applied the Forchheimer flow model in Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulation to characterize the flow through an orifice used as a quadratic Power Takeoff (PTO) for the Halona oscillating water column (OWC) wave energy convertor (WEC) in the experiments. This proposed method has been successfully utilized for a fixed omnidirectional spar buoy WEC in regular waves. The objective of this project was to extend the application of this method to a floating WEC. This resource contains the final project report and the modeling data associated with each figure contained in the final project report. The file names are consistent with the figure numbering in the final report. There is a README included in each ZIP folder if the file name is not self-explained. Additional description and explanation for each figure can be found in the report.

Verification was based on engineering analysis and 1:8 scale model testing at Stevens Institute of Technology. Included documents comprise a System Requirements and Description Document (SRDD), a risk assessment, and ABS review comments with responses. The documents define system architecture, performance criteria, environmental conditions, and applicable standards. The review is limited to concept verification and does not cover full-scale performance.
TEAMER - AquaHarmonics High Fidelity WEC Sim PTO and Control Model Validation, Test Logs and Results
공공데이터포털
Collaborative effort between AquaHarmonics, Sandia National Laboratories (SNL), and the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL) to revise and validate Aquaharmonics' full wave to wire model, allowing for reduced uncertainty and increased understanding of design requirements of a utility scale wave energy converter (WEC). SNL and NREL in collaboration with AquaHarmonics, will set up and run WEC Simulator (WEC-Sim) models of the AquaHarmonics WEC, building off past model developments for inclusion of custom PTO (power take-off) dynamics. The intent is to review, update, and verify or validate a new WEC-Sim model against wave tank experimental data. Furthermore, the WEC-Sim model will be coupled to an energy storage system model to better understand the wave-to-wire functionality. This data set is described in the "Test Log" excel file. Please refer to that document for details on each specific test date/time, constraint parameters and model hardware setup details. Sim model can be found in the associated MHKDR link below.
WEC Controls Optimization Final Report
공공데이터포털
The over-arching project objective is to fully develop and validate optimal controls frameworks that can subsequently be applied widely to different WEC devices and concepts. Optimal controls of WEC devices represent a fundamental building block for WEC designers that must be considered as an integral part of every stage of device development. Using a building-blocks approach to optimal controls development, this effort will result in the full development of a feed-forward and feed-back control approach and a wave prediction system. Phase I focused primarily on numerical offline optimization and validation using wave tank testing of three industry partners? WEC devices, including CalWave, Ocean Energy, and Resolute Marine Energy. These industry partnerships allowed us to identify optimal control strategies for these different WEC topologies at different maturity levels. Phase II focused on demonstrating an integrated control system on a custom-built prototype for at-sea testing. A secondary focus during phase II is to adapt our systems identification, controls and wave-prediction frameworks to become more robust and comprehensive in respect to capability, robustness, and reliability. RE Vision Consulting leads this project and has compiled the final public domain report included in this submission.

TEAMER: Electrically Engaged Undulation System for Unmanned Underwater Vehicles
공공데이터포털
This TEAMER RFTS 1 (Request for Technical Support) project supported the flume tank testing of a long range, high endurance unmanned underwater vehicle (UUV) to monitor maritime space. Today, battery-powered remotely operated vehicles (ROVs) lack the duration to make persistent, wide-area data collection possible.The proposed solution, an Electrically Engaged UnduLation (EEL) drone, can sustain missions for longer duration through hydrodynamic energy harvesting. Power is provisioned via the piezoelectric effect, a material-led phenomenon that converts applied stress into electricity. The EEL subsystems include power, propulsion, navigation, ballast, telemetry, and instrumentation. By mimicking the gait of aquatic eels, EEL can counter currents during maneuvering and level-flight. The identified opportunity is in the future capability of extreme endurance UUVs in swarms. The specific goal for the EEL development is to expand the spatio-temporal coverage of the existing ocean observation mission by overcoming significant challenges of autonomous robotics. Some of the challenges presented include novel compliant mechanism for robust actuation, bio-inspired design to emulate efficient locomotion, smart material-based energy harvesting for sustained power, and swarming architecture through enabled autonomy.

TEAMER: FOSWEC Mooring Modeling and Analysis, Post Access Report and Data
공공데이터포털
Floating oscillating surge wave energy converters (FOSWECs) offer several advantages over bottom-hinged oscillating surge wave energy converters, including large wave potential at deep-water sites with fewer permitting and environmental concerns outside territorial waters. As a team, Stevens Institute of Technology, Virginia Tech and Resolute Marine Energy are designing a 100 kW FOSWEC with DOE support (2020-2021) for the PacWave test site "PacWave". The proposed FOSWEC consists of a floating platform, two pivoting flaps, and an innovative power-take-off (PTO). The distance between the two flaps is around half the typical wavelength, resulting in out-of-phase motion and a reduction in motion of the frame and mooring loads. The overall goal of the project is to design, build, deploy and analyze a 1:2 scale (100-kW annual averaged electrical power output) device with reduced levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and peak-to-average power ratio, through the co-design and control of the PTO, WEC, and floating platform. This submission includes a Post Access Report and data for the project of Mooring Modeling and Analysis for Floating Oscillating Surge Wave Energy Converter that Powers Marine Aquaculture of RFTS2 (request for technical support). The data are used to generate all figures in the Post Access Report. Project was a collaboration between Virginia Tech and the National Renewable Energy Lab, with funding from TEAMER.
