    摘要: A rotating wave energy machine includes at least one rotor that revolves in a synchronous manner for utilizing an orbital flow of an undulating body of water that circulates over the rotor. An output power is tapped at a rotor shaft and the power (in the power flow) is converted by at least one lift device of the rotor. A cross-section of the lift device includes at least one curve or angle that is shaped depending on a curve of a total flow. The at least one angle or curve is configured such that the influence of the relative flow on the total flow is taken into account. When the rotating wave energy machine is operational, the relative flow is superposed on the circulating orbital flow that acts on the lift device from outside, and a total flow is produced which is curved about the rotor shaft.

    摘要: A wave power plant includes a platform and at least one coupling member. The at least one coupling member is mounted in such a way as to perform an orbital movement which has a predetermined direction of movement and from which a torque usable for energy conversion can be tapped. A torque compensation device is provided which is designed to essentially compensate or neutralize a reactive torque generated by tapping the usable torque.
