Energy is an everlasting demand which sustains humanity and its activity throughout the world. The main problem energy for all country is still using fossil energy. Using fossil energy caused pollution and contaminate environment. Adopting Ocean wave energy we can convert the wave into eco-green energy. Wave energy in Indonesia very abundant, it’s...

... the rolling speed is large, the frequency of the pontoon vibrates also will be faster so that the pendulum will more easily oscillate. Based on Figure 13 the variation of 15 is when the pontoon has an outrigger with a 495 mm sleeve length from end to end, whereas, in variation 12, the length of the outrigger arm from end to end is 413 mm. Based on the experiment, we can see if the length of the outrigger arm is greater, the average amplitude generated by the pendulum oscillation will be smaller. ...

Seen in Figure 13 that the pontoon variation 15 with the larger outrigger sleeve length has a smaller rolling motion, then as a consequence, the pendulum oscillation will have a smaller amplitude as well. In this experiment, changes in the outrigger level will affect the magnitude of the pontoons that are submerged in water. ...

This is why the pendulum pendants with longer pendulum sleeves have smaller deviations compared to pendulums with shorter arms as shown in Figure 18.

Data obtained that the greater the given wave period, the amplitude of the pendulum oscillation will also be greater. The greater the wave period does cause the rolling angle to become smaller, but not so with the rolling speed that occurs. If the rolling speed is large, the frequency of the pontoon vibrates also will be faster so that the pendulum will more easily oscillate. Based on Figure 13 the variation of 15 is when the pontoon has an outrigger with a 495 mm sleeve length from end to end, whereas, in variation 12, the length of the outrigger arm from end to end is 413 mm. Based on the experiment, we can see if the length of the outrigger arm is greater, the average amplitude generated by the pendulum oscillation will be smaller. At the time of variation 12 (outrigger sleeve = 413 mm), the average amplitude of pendulum oscillation is 41.82 degrees with a vibration frequency of 1.23 Hz. Whereas when a variation of 15 that has a 495 mm outrigger sleeve, the pendulum will oscillate with a maximum amplitude of 21.44 degrees and a frequency of 1.355 Hz. According to D. R. Berrett and C. B. Barrass (1999) by increasing the width of the ship (the length of the vessel is considered fixed), the vessel will be more stable [11]. This is what happens to the pontoon tested by the author. Seen in Figure 13 that the pontoon variation 15 with the larger outrigger sleeve length has a smaller rolling motion, then as a consequence, the pendulum oscillation will have a smaller amplitude as well. In this experiment, changes in the outrigger level will affect the magnitude of the pontoons that are submerged in water. The bigger the outrigger, the value of the pontoon will be smaller.

Therefore, the use of renewable energy has received great attention from people, and the ocean that accounts for the total area of the earth has first co...

A wave energy converter (WEC) using a pendulum system was also invented in 2010, and an experimental approach was performed to analyse the novel geometry of a pontoon in maximising the amplitude of pendulum oscillation [19]. This study was then continued to investigate the mooring configuration by determining the heave, pitch and roll response of pontoon [20]. ...

Marine renewable energy holds strategic potential in Indonesia, not only to meet the target of renewable energy share in the national energy mix but also to provide equal access to clean energy throughout the archipelago. Marine energy in Indonesia is still in the early phase of development, which mainly focusses on resources assessment and power generation through technology prototype testing. Based on a review of available literature, it is found that specific research on the effects of biofouling on material durability of marine energy infrastructure in Indonesia has yet to be addressed. In this study, a matrix that identifies and predicts key fouling organisms and their possible risks on marine renewable energy infrastructure in tropical waters of Indonesia is developed by analysing previous findings in temperate and subtropical waters. Based on the matrix developed, calcareous polychaetes (Serpulidae), barnacles (Amphibalanus spp.), and bivalves (Perna viridis) are among possible key fouling organisms that might pose risks to marine energy infrastructure in Indonesia, such as by adding weight and drag and causing corrosion. Further studies and detailed and statistically robust analysis of the biofouling and its impacts are needed to support the development of the technological performance of marine renewable energy in Indonesia.
