Performance of Generator Pneumatic for Power Plant of Ocean Wave

Abstract

Pneumatic mechanism has been used in the electrical fields, industrial fields, automotive fields, mechanical fields and so on. The principle of pneumatic work is up and down the piston due to the pressure happen in this system. This mechanism can be applied for ocean wave power generation by use wave water. In the previous study, pneumatic mechanism has been used for mini generator of wave power plant [1]. Component of generator for power plant of ocean wave consist on shaft, tube, magnet neodymium, buoys, lamp LED and wire. In this paper we will focus on the varying of dimensions and position of valve and number of buoys. The results show that position valve of tube piston with double exhaust valve can be work well to give output (Voltage) compare the single exhaust valve. The output of position of tube piston with double exhaust valve is 3.2 Volt with 5 buoys and 2 parallel tube piston.
