II. Introduction
Wave energy or wave power is essentially power drawn from waves. When wind blows across the sea surface, it transfers the energy to the waves.
They are powerful source of energy and the energy output is measured by wave speed, wave height, length of wave and water density
The more strong the waves, the more capable it is to produce power. The captured energy can then be used for electricity generation.
Successful and profitable use of wave energy on a large scale only occurs in a few regions around the world. The places include the states of Washington, Oregon and California and other areas along North America’s west coast. This also includes the coasts of Scotland Africa and Australia.

I. History
The first known patent to use energy from ocean waves dates back to 1799, and was
filed in Paris by Girard and his son. An early application of wave power was a device
constructed around 1910 by Bochaux-Praceique to light and power his house
at Royan, near Bordeaux in France. Modern scientific pursuit of wave energy was pioneered by Yoshio Masuda's
experiments in the 1940s. He has tested various concepts of wave-energy devices at
sea. Among these was the concept of extracting power from the angular motion at the
joints of an articulated raft, which was proposed in the 1950s by Masuda.

III. Resource
The passage of wind over the surface of the sea results in the gradual transfer of energy into the water to produce waves. When wind blows across the surface of the water strongly enough it creates waves.
Wind power typically has densities in the range 1.2 – 1.8 kW/ . Waves with a typical power density of 50 kW per meter of wave front or crest length.

IV. Variabilities
The wave resource, not unlike the wind resource on which it depends, also varies on a day - to - day and season - by - season basis; in general wave conditions are more energetic in the winter than in the summer.
For example, about half of the annual wave power at all UK sites occurs during the winter months of December, January and February, as shown in Figure 2.22.

V. Wave motion
The circular particle motion has an amplitude that decreases exponentially with depth and becomes negligible for D< /2.
1). The surface waves are sets of unbroken sine waves of irregular wavelength, phase and direction.
2). The amplitudes of the water particle motions decrease exponentially with depth. At a depth of below the mean surface position, the amplitude is reduced to 1/e of the surface amplitude (e = 2.72, base of natural logarithms). At depths of the motion is negligible, being less than 5% of the surface motion.
3). The amplitude a of the surface wave is essentially independent of the wave length , velocity C or period T of the wave, and depends on the history of the wind regimes above the surface. It is rare for the amplitude to exceed one-tenth of the wavelength.

Figure 08: Particle motion in water waves. (a) Deep water, circular motion of water particles. (b) Shallow water, elliptical motion of water particles.
A particle of water in the surface has a circular motion of radius a equal to the amplitude of the wave. The wave height H from the top of a crest to the bottom of a trough is twice the amplitude: H = 2a. The angular velocity of the water particles is (radian per second).

g : The acceleration of gravity, 9.81 m/s2.
h: The height of the wave—the vertical distance between the through and the crest of a wave.
T : The period the time interval between two successive wave crests at a fixed point.
v : The phase velocity of the wave—the ratio between the wavelength and the period.
λ: The wavelength the horizontal distance between two successive wave crests, measured along the direction of propagation.

Shallow water , thus the wave velocity

VII. Wave energy and power
a) BasicThe elementary theory of deep water waves begins by considering a single regular wave. The particles of water near the surface will move in circular orbits, at varying phase, in the direction of propagation x.

• Potential energy per unit width of wave per unit length
• The total energy per unit width per unit length of wave front, i.e. total energy per unit area of surface

Wave technologies have been designed to be installed in the nearshore,
offshore, and far offshore locations.
While wave energy technologies are intended to be installed at or near the
water's surface, there can be major differences in their technical concept
and design.

VII. Ocean Wave Energy Technologies Terminator Devices
The wave motion inside the chamber alternately compresses and decompresses the air that exists above the water level inside the chamber.
As a result, an alternating stream of high-velocity air is generated.
This airflow is driven through a duct to a turbine generator that is used to generate electricity.
The energy generating capacity of a single terminator device can be up to 1.5 MW.

27
The Oscillating Water Column (OWC) generates electricity in a two step process. As a wave enters the column, it forces the air in the column past a turbine and increases the pressure within the column.As the wave retreats, the air is drawn back past the turbine due to the reduced air pressure on the ocean side of the turbine.Irrespective of the airflow direction, the turbine (referred to as a Wells turbine, after its inventor) turns in the same direction and drives a generator to produce electricity.

VII. Ocean Wave Energy TechnologiesAttenuators The segments flex at hinged joints as a
wave passes along the device. The mechanical motion of the flexing is converted to electrical energy using hydraulic motors and generators.
The electrical energy is fed down a single umbilical cable to a junction on the seabed.
Several devices can be connected together and linked to shore through a single underwater transmission cable.
The energy generating capacity of a single attenuator device can be up to 1 MW.

Each Pelamis has three power module joined by tubular section.
Wave causes the modules and tubes to move in relation to each other.
This motion is resisted by hydraulic rams in each of joints.
The hydraulic rams pump high-pressure oil through hydraulic motors.
The hydraulic motors drive electrical generators to produce electricity.

VII. Ocean Wave Energy Technologies Point Absorbers
The rise and fall of the wave height at a single point that caused by passing waves is used to drive electromechanical or hydraulic energy converters to generate power.
This mechanical energy drives an electrical generator. The electrical energy is fed down a single umbilical cable to a junction on the seabed.
Several devices can be connected together and linked to shore through a single underwater cable. They can either float or be anchored to the sea floor.
An individual point absorber device may produce up to 11 MW of electricity.
