Triton Point Absorber 1:30 Scale Tank Test Data for Extreme Wave Environments

This content model summarizes laboratory testing data for the Oscilla Power Triton WEC conducted at 1:30 scale. The WEC was tested in large operational waves and in extreme wave conditions along the 1 in 50 year wave contour at the DoE reference location in Humbolt Bay, CA. The WEC was tested in both its operational configuration and its survival configuration. The aims of the dataset are (i) To demonstrate that the survival strategy developed for the Triton WEC improves survivability and reduces loads in extreme wave environments, and (ii) To determine the ultimate design loads for the WEC.

本内容模型总结了Oscilla Power公司Triton波浪能转换器（WEC）1:30缩尺模型的实验室测试数据。该WEC在加利福尼亚州洪堡湾美国能源部（DoE）参考位置，沿50年一遇波浪等值线，分别在大型运行波浪和极端波浪条件下进行了测试。测试涵盖了WEC的运行配置和生存配置两种状态。本数据集的目标包括：（i）验证为Triton WEC开发的生存策略可提升其在极端波浪环境中的生存能力并降低载荷；（ii）确定该WEC的极限设计载荷。
