ESTIMATION OF GENERATOR ELECTRICAL POWER OUTPUT AND TURBINE TORQUE IN MODELLING AND FIELD TESTING OF OWC WAVE ENERGY CONVERTERS

Estimation of generator electrical power output and turbine torque in modelling and field testing of OWC wave energy converters

The oscillating water column is one of the most tested and used wave energy converter types.It requires the use of an air turbine connected to an electrical generator.The deep understanding of all physical quantities of the energy chain components is based on transducers.The electrical generator efficiency is a key input jonquille comestible to wav

Fishery induces sperm depletion and reduction in male reproductive potential for crab species under male-biased harvest strategy.

Sperm depletion in males can occur when polygynous species are intensively exploited under a male-biased management strategy.In fisheries involving crabs species, the effects of this type of management on the reproductive potential is far from being understood.This study tests whether male-biased management of the principal Chilean crab fishery is
