Ocean waves are a bit random in frequency and amplitude so I'm just trying lock down a simple scenario to get an idea of the energy potential. Physics math, I know very little.
Let's say we have a steady wave pattern that lifts 10,000 lbs one foot every 2 seconds. Convert to that to an energy unit, like, horsepower. Can someone give me a formula I can work with for that?
I'm actually designing a wave powered generator but my specialty is in the hydraulic side of the project.
Thanks, and if you're interested in the project, message me.
