Abstract

Wave power generation is a widely studied area of research in the field of clean energy. As a demand-driven industry, it is highly sensitive to changes in the cost per kilowatt-hour of electricity. Therefore, reducing costs and improving power generation efficiency is a key focus of research. The numerical method of fluid-structure coupling optimization is an important means of optimizing device design to enhance durability and efficiency. This paper reviews progress in fluid-structure coupling research on oscillating wave energy generation devices such as oscillating float, pendulum, duck, and raft types. The limitations of current fluid-structure coupling simulations are analyzed, and future development trends of wave energy devices are discussed.
