- Abstract
The present work describes a study related to the influence on the shoreline dynamics of a large WEC array consisting of Pelamis devices. The target area is located in a coastal environment in the western side of the Black Sea. Various simulations based on the wave climate from this area have been made with SWAN spectral phase averaged wave model. Two situations have been considered in order to evaluate the impact of the wave energy farm: model simulations without any wave energy converter and simulations considering included in the computational domain of a system consisting 30 Pelamis devices. More analysis have been carried out in both geographical and spectral spaces. The results show that a significant influence appears in the area analyzed and is gradually decreasing to the coast line level.
