Standard log-capture differentials as performance metrics for deepwater wave power generation

Author

  • Roy, Sanjoy

Abstract

As a support to performance assessment of deepwater wave energy converters, this work quantifies susceptibility of output power to short duration variations, independent of source wave statistics. Introduced as ς-metrics, the quantified measures may be a basis for technology comparisons, with possible convergence to a choice for implementation. The metrics further allow comparison between different versions of a specific converter technology, thereby helping in design revision and refinement.
