Controlled capture of the full ocean wave cycle of energy that is available horse shoe like shape, (three vectors) and the conversion of that energy into electrical energy using a turbine/generator.

摘要

This invention consists of special structures, methods and devices, which make up a system to provide controlled capture of the full ocean wave cycle, at or near the ocean shore, which includes, surface and some sub-surface energy, the backwash and the undertow. And, it does it in a dynamic and somewhat continuous flow (with the exception of some small storage). The system adjusts for low wave and high wave activity, and also for variations in the tide. The main structure has a barrier wall inside, which can also adjust for variations in the tide, the amount of energy to be collected at high wave activity and in the period/frequency of the waves. The structure includes a small reservoir to help capture more water during low wave activity. The captured water flow is transported to a suitable turbine/generating device for producing electrical energy. A method and some devices are available for controlling the influx of water into the turbine. Thus the ocean wave energy is captured in a better, more effective and efficient manner, producing a controlled environment, thus making the flow of water more suitable output for the conversion of the mechanical energy into electrical energy.
