Abstract
- The article discusses a study which presented a multi-chamber oscillating water column (M-OWC) device SeaBreath to reduce and convert wave energy in harbour entrance and inner channels. It describes the operating principle of the device. It shows a possible innovative application of a wave energy converter (WEC) as attenuator of ship generated short waves. Also explored in the study is the effect of power takeoff (PTO) on extract part of the incident wave energy.
