CalWave Holistic PTO Design - Component Acceptance and Assembly Documentation
This project aims to advance the Technology Readiness Level (TRL) of CalWave's commercial scale Power Take-Off (PTO) subsystem through further increasing the level of coupling in physical PTO and concurrent controls design. This is achieved by incorporating a systematic holistic controls design into the TRL advancement of the PTO subsystem development, where the TRL advancement of the PTO is inherently coupled to the development of the WEC absorber body. This submission includes the component acceptance and assembly report with pictures and descriptions.
