Abstract[English]
The invention introduces a wave energy conversion system that utilizes the kinetic energy of water body waves, transforming it into usable energy. The system is innovatively designed with two buoyant bodies that, through their multi-dimensional non-parallel arrangement, form a recess optimized for capturing wave energy from. One of the system's distinctive features is its capacity to passively modify the relative orientation of the buoyant bodies, to become more parallel, in response to large wave forces, which serves to maintain stability under varying sea conditions. Concurrently, the system boasts advancements in the realm of installation and maintenance, presenting a streamlined approach that significantly alleviates the challenges traditionally associated with deploying and upkeeping marine energy converters. These aspects together underscore the system's novel contributions to enhancing the operational efficiency and sustainability of wave energy conversion technology.[French]
L'invention introduit un système de conversion d'énergie houlomotrice qui utilise l'énergie cinétique de vagues de masse d'eau, la transformant en énergie utilisable. Le système est conçu de manière innovante avec deux corps flottants qui, par leur agencement non parallèle multidimensionnel, forment un évidement optimisé pour capturer l'énergie houlomotrice. L'une des caractéristiques distinctives du système est sa capacité à modifier passivement l'orientation relative des corps flottants, pour qu'ils deviennent plus parallèles, en réponse à de grandes forces houlomotrices, ce qui sert à maintenir la stabilité dans des conditions de mer variables. Simultanément, le système présente des progrès dans le domaine de l'installation et de l'entretien, présentant une approche rationalisée qui atténue considérablement les défis traditionnellement associés au déploiement et au maintien de convertisseurs d'énergie marine. Tous ces aspects mettent en évidence les nouvelles contributions du système pour améliorer l'efficacité opérationnelle et la durabilité de la technologie de conversion d'énergie houlomotrice.
