Abstract

We test the performance of a wave power absorber of a rocking body of Salters Duck of 37cm in diameter and 150cm in width combined with a hydro-static power conversion mechanism consisting of a hydraulic cylinder, check valves and an accumulator, clarify the effect of both the shape of the body and the load characteristics on the efficiency, and propose a control method of hydraulic power conversion mechanism for efficient storage and absorption of wave energy.
