Abstract :

Renewable energies such as wave energy, despite rapid technological progress and potentials in Iranian waters, are yet require careful studies. Recent developments of marine energy in the world can manifest itself for energy demands in Iran. In this paper, the procedure for design of well’s turbine and Oscillating water column (OWC) containers are explained. Experimental wave measurements from Anzali Port is used to design the system of OWC. Optimum size of the OWC container and well’s turbine are derived for using the maximum accessible wave energy in Anzali Port.
