| Research Abstract |
The following results were obtained through the experimental investigations of a hydroelectric generation system utilizing a flapping wing.(1) The system has a high efficiency at lower tip speed regions. (2) In a cascade-wing generator, the influence of the gap and the oscillation phase between the adjacent wings was clarified. The condition for optimizing the power generation was obtained. (3) The generator without a subsidiary power motor for exciting the pitching motion of the wing was developed. Tests revealed that the performance is equivalent to the former one.
