Abstract
The purpose of this study was to improve the design construction of a float type wave micro energy converter. Especially we emphasized on the modelling of a metal capsule float type converter in order for better performance of its kind. At the same time we discussed some parameters on the basis of experimental study. Data concerning on the status of wave energetics and the process of development were discussed. The operating principle, advantages of the wave plant and its benefits as compared to the existing technology were reported. The project of a test installation of wave simulator and the research results were presented. The authors also investigated the electro technical characteristics of the generating unit. The developed micro unit of WMPP showed the possibility of energy generation at wave amplitude from 20cm and more when the wave oscillation period T within 1-5sec. The field research with the wave oscillation simulator confirmed the generation values of one micro unit within the capacity limits from 20 to 60W. It will broaden the possible opportunities and increase the WMPP capacity by a certain level if the micro units are constructed in cluster systems.
