This part of IEC TS 62600 is concerned with the sub-prototype scale development of WECs. It
includes the wave tank test programmes, where wave conditions are controlled so they can be
scheduled, and the first large-scale sea trials, where sea states occur naturally and the
programmes are adjusted and flexible to accommodate the conditions. A full-scale prototype
test schedule is not covered in this document. Bench tests of PTO (power take-off) equipment
are also not covered in this document.
This document describes the minimum test programmes that form the basis of a structured
technology development schedule. For each testing campaign, the prerequisites, goals and
minimum test plans are specified. This document addresses:
• Planning an experimental programme, including a design statement, technical drawings,
facility selection, site data and other inputs as specified in Clause 5.
• Device characterisation, including the physical device model, PTO components and
mooring arr.....
