Abstract
This paper proposes a linear permanent magnet (PM) vernier machine for direct-drive wave power generation. Firstly, the machine structure is proposed and its parameters are indentified by finite element analysis (FEA). Secondly, the mathematical modeling of wave power absorption system was established. The control strategy for maximizing absorbed wave power is discussed. Then, by using Matlab/Simulink, the wave power generator system is modeled and simulated. A vector control scheme is implemented which controls power flow between the generator and the load via a bi-directional AC/DC converter. The simulation results verify the feasibility of the proposed machine used for direct-drive wave power generation.
