Harvesting the Wave Energy: The Function of Wells Turbine
In this episode, we explain the function of Wells Turbine. This turbine is one possible power take-off for the oscillating water column concept of harnessing the wave energy. In our movie about the "Limpet" wave power plant, this turbine is shown, but not explained. Several viewers couldn't understand the function of this turbine. Some of them even claim that this turbine couldn't produce any energy. This is the reason why we created this movie. We are not affiliated with any company which is producing this type of turbine. This movie is also not made in a commission of anybody. Its sole purpose is to explain the function of the Wells Turbine. Maybe, watching this movie, you will get another idea for the solution of harvesting wave energy and help to produce sustainable energy. We just spread the ideas to keep our planet green.

The functionality of the wave power station developed by Voith Hydro (www.voith.com). Animation produced by the company "i-explain" ( i-explain.at). This video explains the function of the Wave Power Station with Wells turbine. This plant was shut down. It was built mainly as a test plant. There is a new bigger plant in Spain, near Bilbao - Mutriku Wave Power Plant. (tethys.pnnl.gov/annex-iv-si...

    And what happens to the wind turbine when a storm blows in and the waves start crashing over the shoreline? How would that wind turbine fare when sea water starts surging through it? What sort of pollution would it give off and what would be the cost to rebuild or replace it every time a storm blows through?

    Day and night, all year round with zero fuel or emissions. It‘s there just to harvest.

    How do they tackle the high tide and low tide times? What if the water goes inside the wells turbine chamber? Do they install one way flap to keep the water from entering inside the chamber? If yes, then will the pressure difference is still maintained to keep the turbine in operation? I'm curious Please explain anyone

    For innovation of this propposed power plant; 1) The sea current must be boosted first from multiple source then house in one solid channel wherein the step up sea current is now the one will drive the turbine of huge power plant . The power plant of course house inside the huge channel wherein step sea current is produced. This will totally protect the power plant itself because it is contained solidly but the saltwater damage(rust) must be addressed. Moreover, scientists obviously and no doubt can solve this saltwater issue(rust) , materials that negate rust or similar issues undersaltwater. Finally, the huge obstacle is "Political Will"

    I’ve surveyed and learnt a lot from your report about the WEC. Recently I’m preparing MOOCs teaching videos and a Chinese textbook about marine technology, and I need to quote the LIMPET photo/video on your website into my textbook and teaching videos. This quotation is only for educational purpose but not for commercial benefit. Therefore, I asked your permission to use the above photo/video. I’m happy to sign any agreement of non-profit access. And look forward to seeing your positive reply. Thank you.

    The turbine shape looks highly counterintuitive as the surfaces of the plates are not inclined at all.They shoud be inclined in order the water to hit the surface and thus to rotate it!

    Another wonderful idea on how we can generate electricity without pollution in the coming New System of things. The rebellion started in the Garden of Eden has side-tracked Mankind long enough, and as we watch the daily news is coming to a fever pitch point. We will certainly enjoy conceiving, building and enjoying technologies like this in the coming New System.
