| الوصف: | There has been considerable modelling and wave basin validation of the multi-mode, multi-float, moored wave energy converter M4. The 6 float (2 power take off) (PTO) configuration is considered here with mooring from a buoy with light inextensible cables. Large mean mooring forces and very large peak or snap forces were measured in large waves while the rotational response about the hinges (for power take off in operational conditions) was predominantly linear. Modelling has been extended with elastic mooring cables connected directly to the base of the bow float and to the buoy. The experimental mean force is input to the linear diffraction/radiation model. The device response is effectively unchanged. The peak mooring force and tensions remain large with direct connection to the base of the bow float but are only slightly greater than the mean forces with elastic cables to the buoy, and an elastic hawser provides a further slight reduction. For the largest waves measured, the force was about 10% of the dry weight of the platform. The idealized efficient modelling may inform more detailed design while efficient methods for determining highly nonlinear mean forces remain to be established. |
