ABSTRACT:
An wave turbine composed of a omnidirectional turbine (or Double Wind Turbine) that is used with two tanks and a connecting tube between the two tanks. This omnidirectional turbine is placed in the middle of the connecting tube in a vertical axis position. The two tanks are placed a half wave length apart from the center to the center of each tank. Since the two tanks are a half water wave apart, than as water level of one of the tank rises the other water level on the other tank will go to lower and vise versa. This action will cause a back and forward motion of compressed air through the connecting tube. This compressed air will go through the omnidirectional turbine and cause a unidirectional rotation of the omnidirectional turbine. A axle connected to the omnidirectional turbine will transfer the energy to a generator to produce power output.
