Oscillating float-type wave power generation simulator

Abstract

The invention discloses an oscillating float-type wave power generation simulator which comprises a wave mechanical simulation device and an oscillating float power generation simulation device. The wave mechanical simulation device comprises a power source, a horizontal experiment frame, a variable-frequency motor and a transmission shaft. One end of the transmission shaft is connected with an output shaft of the variable-frequency motor through a coupling and a reduction gearbox. The oscillating float power generation simulation device comprises a vertical experiment frame, a slider-crank mechanism, a wave energy acquisition device and a linear power generation rectifying device. The slider-crank mechanism is connected with the other end of the transmission shaft to be used for converting rotation movement of the transmission shaft to push the wave energy acquisition device to linearly move up and down so as to drive the linear power generation rectifying device to conduct undulation movement in the vertical direction for power generation, rectification and power storage. According to the oscillating float-type wave power generation simulator, the torque of the variable-frequency motor is converted into force of which the magnitude is increased or decreased vertically along with the time in a sine wave change manner, the wave force is simulated, and the simulator is simple in structure, low in cost, small in occupied space, convenient to maintain, economical and reliable.

Description

technical field [0001] The invention belongs to the field of novel renewable energy technology and marine equipment, in particular to an oscillating float type wave power generation simulation device. Background technique [0002] The total area of ​​the ocean is 3.61 billion km2, accounting for about 71% of the total area of ​​the world. The water storage in the ocean is about 97% of the total water in the world. Most of the heat energy bestowed by the sun on the earth is absorbed and stored by sea water. Therefore, the ocean It is the largest solar collector, and the ocean energy reserve in seawater is also very huge. In recent years, with the advancement of science and technology and the intensification of energy shortages, the development and utilization of wave energy, an inexhaustible clean and green energy, has also moved from "behind the scenes" to "front stage", and has begun to take shape in commercialization . [0003] According to the existing technical basis a...
