Simulation and Experimental Study of Hydraulic Cylinder in Oscillating Float-Type Wave Energy Converter

Hydraulic cylinders play a vital role in the energy output (PTO) system of an oscillating float-type wave energy converter, whose function is to convert the mechanical energy captured by the float from the waves into hydraulic energy. The performance of the hydraulic cylinder determines the conversi...
