TEAMER: Heterogeneous Wave Energy Converter Test Data
This dataset was generated during the Heterogeneous Wave Energy Converter (HetWECs) experimental campaign led by PhD candidate Olivia Vitale from the Cornell Symbiotic Engineering and Analysis Lab. The experiments were conducted at the O.H. Hinsdale Direction Wave Basin at Oregon State University and include system identification, hydrodynamics, and power take-off (PTO) tests. The experiments feature 4- and 5-body heterogenous WEC arrays consisting of both oscillating surge WECs and heaving point absorbers. Data was collected using Qualysis motion capture of the device motion, resistive wave gauges to capture wave height data at 20 locations throughout the basin, S-shaped load cells to measure wave excitation force and radiation force, and a Vesc 6 75 to measure motor current, motor RPMs, and FOC current.
