WAVE POWER PLANT Russian patent published in 1994 - IPC

FIELD: electrical power engineering. SUBSTANCE: floating body partially filled with working fluid has bottom with convex surface divided with hollow vertical partition into two compression chambers intercommunicating in lower parts with suction valves. Air collection of user is connected to chamber with the help of check valves. Lower surface of partition is manufactured curvilinear, streamline form. Air collector is formed by means of inner space of partition. Configuration of bottom of body has shape of two conjugate cylindrical surfaces with different curvature radii which are bigger close to surface located on sea side. User is manufactured in the form of turbo-generator and is mounted on air collector. EFFECT: increased efficiency and reliability. 3 cl, 6 dwg
