Numerical modelling of the 'Bombora' wave energy conversion device

This paper presents a numerical model for a novel membrane-based wave energy harvesting device developed by Bombora Wave Power Pty. Ltd. The membrane model was implemented initially implemented in python, followed by a complete implementation as an add-in library to OpenFOAM. The results for 3 confi...
