    摘要: A fluid transformer is comprised of standard components arranged in a novel way that gives a substantial high efficiency gain in overall transmission over prior art transfomers. The transformer is applied in a example of continuous application where high efficiency is important, that of a wave energy converter, (WEC), that reciprocates as recurring waves pass over. The transformer operates with single-acting, double-acting and helical hydraulic actuators to pressurize hydraulic fluid in an energy conversion system and power a hydraulic motor that drive an electric generator. A sensor system detects characteristics of in-coming waves, or alternatively waves in the process of wave making, by detecting changes in pressure as waves pass over the sensor system. A control computer system calculates characteristics of the waves such as wave height and speed data, and uses the data to control aspects of the WECs and components of the transformer system.
