Abstract

This report presents the results of an experimental study that was performed on small scale model that was a replication of the full-scale Weptos WEC intended for DanWEC. The tests were performed in the circular basin at FloWave at Edinburgh University in October 2014. The laboratory facilities had the capabilities to have simultaneously currents and waves from any possible direction and also to produce advanced wave specifications.
