Ocean waves

Dissertation note: Project paper ( Bachelor of Mechanical Engineering) -- Universiti Malaysia Pahang - 2012 Abstract: The ocean wave is a type of renewable energy with abundant resources and can contain considerable amount of power which can be convert into useful electrical energy. This thesis aims to propose and develop a concept of ocean wave energy harvesting system and to investigate the characteristic of the system. An ocean wave energy harvesting system was developed based on a linear magnet generator. A test rig with a wave generator was built to simulate the wave and the influences of the wave height on the system power output were identified. Experimental test on the system have shown that with increase of wave height the power output also increase with the highest power output at 0.74655 mW at 4.5 cm. The important characteristic of an ocean wave energy generator is the storage capacity, number of wire turns in coil and the strength of the magnet. It can be comprehend that the developed model is capable of converting the kinetic energy of the wave into electrical energy. A more improved ocean wave energy harvesting system is highly recommended for small scale electrical applications.
