摘要
The Sloped IPS Buoy is a deep-water wave-energy converter concept whose power take-off mechanism relies on water inertia for reference. The present work deals with the modelling of this device using the higher order feature of the boundary element method package WAMIT. In a first stage, numerical predictions are compared with experimental data for a configuration where the system motion is constrained to a single degree of freedom. Comparisons are then established, initially for a free-floating configuration with no power take-off system and then with damping applied by a power take-off system.
