Wave Power Generation

As a clean and renewable energy source, wave energy is of great significance in solving primary energy shortages and environmental pollution. Direct-drive wave power systems consisting of linear generators have attracted the attention of researchers from various countries. Linear Switched Reluctance Generator has the advantages of simple structure, sturdiness, reliable operation, suitable for harsh environments, and easy maintenance, aiming at the problem of single-sided magnetic pull force and serious coupling of phase winding of traditional linear switched reluctance generator, a Double-sided Linear Switched Reluctance Generator (DLSRG) for wave power generation is designed, and its electromagnetic characteristics (including coupling characteristics, magnetic saturation characteristics, and magnetic tension characteristics) are analyzed to verify the rationality of the structure and parameter selection. Finally, the power generation performance is studied. The joint simulation results show that the structure design of DLSRG is reasonable, overcomes the problem of single-sided magnetic pull force, the phase-to-phase coupling is negligible, and it has continuous power generation capability, and the power generation efficiency is as high as 80.6%. Therefore, DLSRG designed in this paper is suitable for wave power generation.
