dc.description.abstract | This document describes and demonstrates the features of a new innovative hydraulic
Power take-Off (PTO) to be used for Wave Energy Conversion. This device is able to transform low
frequency oscillating movement into a continuous high frequency angular speed, absorbing high
fluctuated torque at the input shaft, which can reach up to 8000Nm. Moreover, the major
breakthrough of this device is that it can control the braking torque through the modification of some
geometrical parameters, L and R, and through the activation of more than one hydraulic cylinder
together with the pressure. The output shaft of the PTO is able to rotate at different continuous rated
speed through the actuation on a specific control valve at the inlet of the hydraulic motor. Tests to
check the behavior of the PTO related to the smoothening of the power output and concerning the
time needed to increase the high pressure and the time available after the accumulation of some
quantity of energy in different initial conditions are presented. | en |
