Abstract

This paper presents a modular modeling framework for the Ocean Grazer's Power Take-Off (PTO) system, which operates as an array of point-absorber type devices connected to a hydraulic system. The modeling is based on the port-Hamiltonian (PH) framework that enables energy-based analysis and control of the PTO system. Firstly, a modular model of a point-absorber hydraulic system, which represents the main building block of the PTO, is presented. The model consists of wave-mechanical and hydraulic subsystems that are interconnected with a transformer-type interconnection. Secondly, we show passivity of the point-absorber hydraulic element and the accumulation of potential energy, which is due to the novel pumping mechanism of the point-absorber. Finally, we illustrate these properties through simulation results.
