TY - RPRT A1 - Hinse, Michael T1 - The Wells turbine: state of the art N2 - The first oscillating water column was invented in 1940. In the past decades the need of wave energy systems has significantly increased. This article quickly describes the Wells turbine and possibilities to enhance its performance and should answer the question: what are the design parameters that can be optimized? Furthermore it gives a small outlook about the history of oscillating Water Columns.
