| Summary: | Nowadays, sea wave energy is widely regarded as an energy source that is clean, renewable and highly available for power extraction. The subject of extracting the maximum power from sea waves in Iran is of great importance due to access to the Caspian Sea and the Persian Gulf. Moreover, there is a need for resources with no air pollution besides providing a part of the country's power demand without costly infrastructure, so this research field is highly interesting although has rarely been addressed so far. The main purpose of this paper is to use an appropriate control strategy to improve the performance of point absorbers. In this scheme, to consider high uncertainty in the parameters of the power take-off system in different atmospheric conditions and improve controller performance, a new improved black hole algorithm is introduced to tune fuzzy controller parameters. The proposed method is then implemented for tuning the fuzzy controller parameters in order to obtain the maximum power capture of wave energy converters. Compared to particle swarm optimization and conventional black hole algorithm, the results of the proposed method indicate enhancements in reference velocity tracking and absorbed power. Finally, some simulations are performed and the proposed controller is implemented for the wave spectrum of the Persian Gulf waters, so the performance of the proposed controller is evaluated. |
