Design of Energy Harvesting Efficiency of‘Haiyuan 1’ Wave Power Generating Platform’s Buoy Testing System based on LabVIEW

Energy harvesting efficiency of buoy testing is an important part of wave power generating platform research. Traditional test system has disadvantages of low accuracy, low level of automation, and complex operation. In this paper, a new energy harvesting efficiency of buoy test system based on ‘Haiyuan 1’ wave power generating platform and Virtual Instrument Software LabVIEW is de-veloped. The ‘Haiyuan 1’ wave power generating platform and the buoys are described, and, hard-ware and software are designed for this system. The system was successfully applied to the test plat-form of ‘Haiyuan 1’ and it can achieve the functions of data acquisition, data processing and dis-play, generating report, analyzing signal, and so on. This application shows that this test system has features of high accuracy, reliable stability, high automation and simple operation, which has refer-ence value for engineering application.
