Abstract(s)
This paper addresses the problem of the sea wave energy conversion. The power
delivery at low speeds is one of the barriers imposed by the irregular movement of
sea waves, requiring the use of electric machines that can produce large amounts of
force to compensate the low speeds of that motion. The main concern is the
proposal of a new linear switched reluctance generator. The proposed generator
has high power density, robustness, and easy modeling and construction. Its
analytical design and optimization based on finite element method are presented.
Results and design challenges are discussed.
