For an offshore platform structure applied to wave-energy conversion system, in order to catch the maximum waves to generate more powers, similar to wind-energy power generators, a range of angles for the devices normal to the propagating direction of incident waves is required, particularly when the power converting system has directional preference. In this study, an electro-magnetic wave energy conversion device was developed and tested in a single-mooring offshore platform system. In order to find the best design parameters for the electro-magnetic generators system in various wave periods a water-tank experiment was designed and performed.
During the experimental study, both wave parameters and dimensional related parameter of the generator were under investigation. It was found in this study that the newly developed wave conversion system can work well under certain periods and height of waves. The relationships between the parameter were presented into figures.
