Title

STUDY OF WAVE ENERGY CONVERTER AS PROTECTIVE STRUCTURE TO ARREST EROSION AT ENDANGERED WEST COAST OF KARNATAKA, INDIA

Abstract

The intense usage of energy propels development all across the planet. However, energy availability is restricted, while country energy demands continue to rise. Renewable energy has the capacity to supply the hasty demand without depleting existing resources. The wave energy is one kind of sustainable energy that can be useful to produces energy; moreover this attempt will alleviates the erosion of coastal area. Hence, the present work is devoted to check the feasibility of Wave Energy Converter (WEC) to protect the coastal area. For present work, the study area has been selected as Ullal, Karnataka. The methodology used in this work was, the MIKE-21 spectral wave model (SW) was calibrated and validated using the wind and wave data in the offshore location and near the Ullal, for year 2015 and data was obtained from ESSO – INCOIS. The wave assessment was carried by the numerical model MIKE 21 spectral wave model (SW). Moreover, calibrated SW model’s result of wave energy potential is used to know transmission of waves through WEC and is studied using MIKE 21 Boussinesque wave (BW) model. The observed and simulated data shows good agreement, indicating the acceptance of model. The results showed that, there was a significant reduction in the wave height in the lee side of the WEC. The wave climate in the lee side of the WEC, is used for the sediment drift studies. Sediment drift with and without the effect of WEC was calculated using LITPACK. It was seen that as a result of the protection of WEC, drift along the shore has reduced considerably. Overall, the study concludes that using a wave energy converter as a protective construction to alleviate erosion is practical and sustainable, and that such efforts benefit the nation's economy.
