Experimental Study of a Wave Energy Converter Using a Unidirectional Cascaded Gear System in a Short-Wave Period
A wave energy converter (WEC) based on a direct mechanical drive system (DMDS) exhibits limited performance when the sea state stands for a short period.This study aims to increase the efficiency of a WEC-DMDS mechanical system Rangehood Fan Motor applied under short-wave conditions.A novel WEC is designed by applying cascaded gear and reducing the
