DIT Mechanical Engineering - Final Year Project Update Wave Energy Converter

This is my scale model prototype, Wave energy converter. Please email me if you've any questions.

Thanks for watching. 5 stars please!

This is an update to the other videos on my profile. Here a special rig was designed to demonstrate the principle of operation with the use of a wave test tank.

Hey, am doing my final yr project on a wave energy converter...and am stuck in a couple of things...i was wondering if you could give me any sort of assitance on it..???

Very well done but the pneumatic drive is VIOLENT! Put it in a vessel of water for your testing, try varying points of bouyancy around the rim to exaggerate the wave motions and maintain the helical motion of the device

thanks for the comment. If you check out my other videos you'll see I've used a water tank also.

whats this exactly ? i think its broken

[hoppper26]

what the hell is this

[kawsihen]

will it blend?

[Nero5174]

not sure wat it does but i think its working

[HaydenHatTrick]

I think I get the principle behind this. Actually a decent concept to use that to harness waves... obviously a prototype demonstration.

what kind of trash is this?

[radokopca]

lol this is useless crap

[CamoPeng]

Someone please explain what it's purpose is? It sounds deadly.

What is this exactly?

[pnailen]

looks like a broken washing machine... lol jk

Kewl, a bed pan generator! real simple, and if you sealed it and put it in the ocean, i think this would work! Now if you used a telephone magneto, and gravity swings the arm, and generates a/c volts and amps. a bunch of them hooked up and wired together and teathered would be a neat thing!

fail all over the place
