Abstract

The objective of this paper is to describe the modelling and some of the offshore test results of the full-scale model of Archimedes wave swing (AWS) at Portugal in 2004. The AWS is a system that converts ocean wave energy into electric energy. A pilot plant of this system has been built. The paper starts with the derivation of a model for the floater motion. Next, the generator system is described and modelled. The generator system consists of a permanent-magnet linear synchronous generator with a current source inverter. Subsequently, test results are presented to validate the models for the floater motion and the generator. Finally, some conclusions are drawn.
