The purpose of this paper is to present the results of velocity and inducted magnetic field based on thedimensionlessgoverning equations of the incompressible, viscous, instant fluid from equation (1) to equation (6).We assumed a full developed and steady flow so that we can get the exact solutions. Firstly, we considered the situation of low magnetic Reynolds number and inducted magnetic field being ignored. Then secondly, we considered the situation of large magnetic Reynolds number. By comparing these two situations, we found two results: (1). theelectromagnetic force produced by the magnetic field changes the original velocity field a lot (Fig.2 and Fig.3); (2). the inducted magnetic field decreases with the decrease of magnetic Reynolds number. The results also prove that the inducted magnetic field can be ignored when the magnetic Reynolds number is less than or equal to 1 (Fig.5).
Research on wave energy extraction has been conducted in many countries to meet the growing demand for clean energy. To find an efficient and economic way to convert wave energy, an one-base multi-buoy offshore floating Sharp Eagle wave energy converter is designed, consisting of four Eagle head absorbing buoys, one semi-submersible barge, one energy conversion system, buoyancy tanks, underwater appendages and other components. The working principle of the device is described in this paper. To test the hydrodynamic performance of device and make an initial evaluation for the design, a model experiment of 1/13.78th scale was carried out. The influence of wave period, wave height, pressure in hydrocylinders and wave direction is tested. All the efficiencies in different conditions are compared with each other, while the high efficiency and stability of device are verified.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
