TEAMER: AquaHarmonics High Fidelity WEC Sim PTO and Control Model Validation, Sim Model
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. Project is part of the TEAMER RFTS 2 (request for technical support) system of WEC research projects. Testing data can be found in the associated MHKDR link below.
Experimental Testing of a Floating Oscillating Surge Wave Energy Converter at Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory
공공데이터포털
In order to generate a public data set that can be used to validate Wave Energy Converter (WEC) numerical codes, such as WEC-Sim, Sandia National Laboratories led an experimental testing campaign of a 1:33 scale Floating Oscillating Surge Wave Energy Converter (FOSWEC) in the Directional Wave Basin at Oregon State University's Hinsdale Wave Research Laboratory. Testing was performed in two phases; Phase 1 testing was completed in November - December 2015, and Phase 2 testing was completed in May - June 2016. This experimental testing report details the selection and design of a FOSWEC, experimental setup and tests, and overview of the resulting dataset from Phase 1 and Phase 2 testing.

공공데이터포털
iProTech PIP wave energy converter (WEC) is a slack moored, single hull device with no moving parts in the water, joints or bearings. This submission includes data of the simulation, reports, and code for the iProTech PIP (WEC) project. The organization of the data included in the provided archive is detailed below and in the data description of the archive. The data teamer-iprotech-nrel folder includes and explains matlab and python code developed to hydrodynamically model the PIP WEC device in WEC-Sim. The subfolders cover the following steps: 1) report: explanatory information on device geometry 2) pip_mesher: python code to generate mesh panels from device profile data 3) wec-sim_models: matlab code to run WEC-Sim The data uploaded is a snapshot as of 11/02/2121 of code residing in a Github repository administered by David Ogden of NREL. Project was funded as part of the TEAMER RFTS 1 (request for technical support) program.
