Harnessing Wave Power with Seaturns

Harnessing Wave Power with Seaturns Under the action of the swell, a cylindrical floater moves horizontally. This back and forth movement is called Surge. Seaturns innovative anchoring system converts this surge movement into pitch. Inside the floater there is a water pendulum and two air-filled chambers at the top, separated by an axial vertical divider. The rotation of the floater combined to the water pendulum creates pressure cycles of the two air chambers. The air flow generated rotates a turbine directly coupled to a generator to produce electricity.
