Oscilla Power has just returned from a productive week of tank testing at University of Maine’s W2 basin. Testing of the 1:20 scale Triton WEC went smoothly and power results showed good agreement with our numerical model predictions. Design improvements implemented between the 1:50 and 1:20 models proved fruitful in significantly boosting WEC’s wideband power capture. With a big thank you to the staff at the University of Maine, the 1:20 Triton model is now en route to the MASK basin, and we look forward to official testing in September.
