Abstract

Energy is one of the most fundamental challenges faced by all societies, which, lack of attention to it, causes many dangers in all aspects of human life. The energy of the sea waves is one of the types of renewable energies that has been sources of energy used in human societies. so far, the different absorbents is developed on the specific conditions in the oceans. Many innovative ideas have been invented to transform the wave into power generation in the last three decades. The seabed carpet is one of the available absorbents, which offers significant advantages over other power generation systems. the present study investigates the structure And the function of this absorbent is to further understand the feasibility of using in the seas of Iran. This paper first explores the parameters and advantages of using a seabed carpet absorbent by studying literature on energy extraction. Also, mathematical relations related to the calculation of the power and efficiency of the device have been extensively expanded.
