HERO WEC V1.0 2024 - WEC-Sim Detailed Simulation Runs and Summary Data
This dataset includes results from simulations of NREL's hydraulic and electric reverse osmosis wave energy converter (HEREO WEC). Simulation runs include 135 wave cases that were based on the updated WEC-Sim model, which is linked below. The data represented in this repository is based on an updated WEC-Sim model using laboratory data to tune and refine the original WEC-Sim model for the V1.0 HERO WEC.
The 135 wave cases represent waves with the following wave height and wave period ranges:
- Significant Wave Height: 0.25 - 3.75m in 0.25m increments
- Wave Period: 5 - 13 sec in 1 sec increments
Each run was simulated using a Pierson-Moskowitz irregular wave spectrum with a 100 second ramp time, a total simulation time of 3,100 seconds, and a simulation time-step of 0.005s. A reference table has been included to map each multi condition run (MCR) case with each wave condition.
Summary data set includes a spreadsheet and image files with matrices that are associated with data from simulation runs. All matrices cover the same significant wave height and wave periods from the simulation runs, in the same increments. The following matrices are included:
- Power Abs: The average absorbed power from the WEC (calculated from anchor reaction force and heave velocity)
- Power Hyd: The average hydraulic power output at pump (calculated from pump output flow and pressure)
- Power - Hyd ROi: The average hydraulic power measured at the RO system inlet (calculated from RO system pressure and flow (pre-accumulator))
- Flow - Pump out: The average flowrate measured at the pump outlet
- Flow - Perm: The average permeate (clean water) production
- Flow - RO (pre): The average flowrate measured at the inlet of the RO system before the accumulators
- Flow - RO (post): The average flowrate measured after the accumulator bank in the RO system
- Pressure - RO: The average pressure measured at the inlet of the RO system
