Abstract

This paper introduces a seawater desalination device based on solar energy and wave energy, and analyzes and studies the wave energy utilization part. The designed seawater desalination device uses heat pipe vacuum tubes to collect solar energy, undergoes heats desalination through a multi-effect distillation system, and utilizes duck-like wave energy capture devices to obtain mechanical energy. The device uses wave energy as mechanical power and transmits the mechanical energy to the reciprocating pump through the gear shaft to complete the conversion of wave energy to mechanical energy, thereby realizing the use of non-electric wave energy. According to the actual conditions of China's sea area, the wave energy-based mechanical power system is analyzed and calculated, and the mechanical conversion efficiency of the system is given.
