Özet

"The oceans and seas contain a vast quantity of mechanical energy in form of surface waves and tides. The high density of oscillating water results in high energy densities, making it a favorable form of hydro power. The estimated sea wave energy potential in the world is about 1kW/m2. In this study, a prototype of a new palette-type sea wave energy conversion (SWEC) device supported by buoys, which is currently under construction in the Mediterranean Sea near the coast of Anamur in Turkey, is proposed and analyzed." © 2011 IEEE.
