Abstract
Deep water offshore structures have access to very powerful ocean waves by virtue of their location and site condition. Should the energy possessed by these waves be harnessed, it can be one of the popular green energy systems. Present study aims at the design and development of a new device that can be fitted on an offshore semisubmersible platform and can produce electricity to meet their operational energy demands partially. Few wave energy devices are developed in the recent past; Common idea in all such devices is that they harness heave, or surge energy of the wave. In the present study, heave energy of the buoy is converted to mechanical work by deploying hydraulic cylinders and a motor. The generated power from the waves shall be primarily utilized in the semi-submersible platform for deep sea mining application. DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3329/jname.v11i2.18420
期刊介绍：
TJPRC: Journal of Naval Architecture and Marine Engineering (JNAME) is a peer reviewed journal and it provides a forum for engineers and scientists from a wide range of disciplines to present and discuss various phenomena in the utilization and preservation of ocean environment. Without being limited by the traditional categorization, it is encouraged to present advanced technology development and scientific research, as long as they are aimed for more and better human engagement with ocean environment. Topics include, but not limited to: marine hydrodynamics; structural mechanics; marine propulsion system; design methodology & practice; production technology; system dynamics & control; marine equipment technology; materials science; under-water acoustics; satellite observations; and information technology related to ship and marine systems; ocean energy systems; marine environmental engineering; maritime safety engineering; polar & arctic engineering; coastal & port engineering; aqua-cultural engineering; sub-sea engineering; and specialized water-craft engineering. International Journal of Naval Architecture and Ocean Engineering is published quarterly by the Society of Naval Architects of Korea. In addition to original, full-length, refereed papers, review articles by leading authorities and articulated technical discussions of highly technical interest are also published.
