title = "Clam wave energy converter",
abstract = "The design of the CLAM wave energy converter has evolved over more than 15 years of wave and micro-hydro work by the Energy Systems Group at Coventry Polytechnic. The structure proposed is a rigid floating torus, moored offshore, consisting of interconnected air cells with rectangular flexible membranes separating the sea from the closed air system. Wave action causes air to be forced back and forth between cells, the flow resisted by Wells air turbines coupled to generators. The ESG is hopeful of future support to pursue the concept to prototype construction.",
