Abstract

In the present study a cylindrical wave energy system with horizontal rotation is newly suggested. The suggested cylindrical wave energy system is composed of the horizontal cylinder and the swing plate. The horizontal cylinder is floated at the free surface, and rotated by the water particle velocity and the current flow. The swing plate is submerged at the bottom of horizontal cylinder and has the pendulum motion according to incident wave motion. To evaluate the characteristic of cylindrical wave energy system the numerical test is carried out using ANSYS Fluent V15 for various parameters. Moreover, the numerical results are compared with experimental results.
