Abstract
Provided is a wave power generation apparatus. The wave power generation apparatus includes an upper structure rolled by a wave, a lower structure disposed under a water plane to rotatably support the upper structure, a generation part disposed on one of the upper and lower structures to convert kinetic energy generated during rotation of the upper structure into electrical energy, and a gravity center movement part disposed on the upper structure, the gravity center movement part moving a gravity center of the upper structure to adjust a rolling period of the upper structure to a wave period.
Claims20
A wave power generation apparatus comprising:
- an upper structure rolled by a wave;
- a lower structure installed under a water plane to rotatably support the upper structure;
- a generation part installed on one of the upper structure and the lower structure and configured to convert kinetic energy generated when the upper structure rotates into electrical energy;
- and
- a gravity center movement part installed in the upper structure and configured to move a center of gravity of the upper structure in order to adjust a rolling period of the upper structure to a wave period.
