Design Of Linear Generator Based On Ship Rolling

Abstract

Ships tend to roll at sea under the influence of wind and waves, and there is a lot of recoverable mechanical energy in rolling motion. To collect the energy generated by waves, design an energy recovery device based on the roll characteristics of ship which installed on the ship deck. Therefore, the energy recovery unit fixed on the ship's deck can indirectly convert wave energy into electricity to power some medium and large merchant ships. So introduces a linear generator based on rolling generation. The simulation is built in Ansys, and the reciprocating motion of the sliding block is realized when the ship rolls continuously. Then, relevant parameters under different combinations of slider speed and coil turns were calculated, and the relationship between relevant parameters and generator output power was analyzed.
