Study on Hydrodynamic Characteristics of the Raft-Type Wave-Powered Desalination Device

By Siming Zheng

Book Overview

Nominated by Tsinghua University as an outstanding thesis in the field

Proposes a raft-type wave-powered desalination device that can desalinate seawater directly

Conducts multiple-parameter analysis on power absorption and averaged permeate water flux using both analytical and numerical models

Develops mathematical models to evaluate the maximum mean power that could be captured by the raft-type device under motion constraints

Presents two power extraction enhancing strategies utilizing a spring-damping mass oscillator system and water tanks
