Seabreath MORE
MORE is a two-chamber OWC device designed to generate a unidirectional and )ideally) continuous airflow. This kind of airflow allows the use to turbines with higher efficiency than the ones used in signle chamber OWCs. The MORE is based on the Seabreath concept. It has been validated by mean of tests carried out on scaled prototypesin wave flume, with regular nd irregular waves, at the Department of Civil, Environmental and Architectural Engineering of the University of Padova.
