Renewable energy, wave generation, oscillating watercolumn, Wells turbine
This paper describes the initial work conducted into developing a wave generator model for use as a teaching and research tool to aid the understanding of wave generation. The model uses a small Wells turbine in conjunction with an oscillating water column. The system was tested in a university wave tank. The results from the initial design are described here.
