Wave Energy Prize - 1/20th Testing - RTI Wave Power Oscillating Wave Surge Converter

Published by Ricardo Detroit Technical Center | Department of Energy | Metadata Last Checked: June 28, 2025 | Last Modified: 2020-07-02T15:27:43Z

Data from the 1/20th scale testing data completed on the Wave Energy Prize for the RTI Wave Power team, including the 1/20th Test Plan, raw test data, video, photos, and data analysis results. The top level objective of the 1/20th scale device testing is to obtain the necessary measurements required for determining Average Climate Capture Width per Characteristic Capital Expenditure (ACE) and the Hydrodynamic Performance Quality (HPQ), key metrics for determining the Wave Energy Prize (WEP) winners.
