LiftWEC deliverable D4.4: Dataset from 2D experimental test campaign, with calculated hydrodynamic forces

  • 1. Ecole Centrale Nantes

Description

This dataset contains 2-dimensional wave tank testing data for a wave-driven rotating hydrofoil model. The model tested is composed of one or two hydrofoils rotating around a horizontal axis, perpendicular to the wave direction. The model was tested in a range of regular and irregular seas. The data contains measurements of the model in the wave tank including; wave measurement, rotor position, forces on the hydrofoils, and torque on the power take off. This data is the first of two sets of wave tank data generated for the LiftWEC H2020 research project. This first set consists of results for the device tested in 2D, while the second set will contain results for tests conducted in 3D. This new version contains all data from version 1 of the first set, which consists of measurement from the experimental testing, plus results from the data analysis calculating the hydrodynamic forces. These forces are calculated by removing the static force and the centrifugal force. For a complete description of the test campaign, readers are directed to "LiftWEC Deliverable D4.4. Report on physical modelling of 2D LiftWEC concepts "
