Abstract

The purpose of this experiment is to develop a floating tidal current generator using a wind lens. In this experiment, a model of a floating tidal current generator was designed, and the results were examined to determine whether the device could generate power both in the water and in the air.

The structure of the device was designed so that the inner ring is a coaxial reversing mechanism, which enables the device to offset torque and generate electricity.

The results of the experiment showed that the voltage waveforms in the water and in the air had similar characteristics. This waveform was caused by the continuous flow of the voltage value becoming “+” when the N-pole approaches, approaching 0 when it is positioned directly under the coil, and becoming “-” when it moves away from the coil. This suggests that power is being generated without problems.
