Marine Energy Engineering Centre of Excellence (MEECE) Measurement Instruments
Notice Description
The Marine Energy Engineering Centre of Excellence (MEECE) has been part funded by the European Regional Development Fund through the Welsh Government and the participating Higher Education Institutions and by the Swansea Bay Region City Deal.MEECE will provide specialist knowledge, experience and capability for the benefit of the marine energy industry and is delivered by ORE Catapult and four universities. MEECE will provide a centre for collaboration through coordinated, joint-industry / cross-industry approaches, whilst disseminating lessons learned for future projects and improving industry productivity and effectiveness. MEECE will bring the expertise and capabilities of Welsh universities, and of the ORE Catapult, into direct contact with technology developers and their supply chains, supporting more innovation, and capturing and embedding that innovation in Wales. It will be based in Pembroke Port with research staff within the university research teams. This equipment supports a range of projects in the areas of Marine Energy and Coastal Engineering. This directly supports fundamental and applied research in decarbonisation through clean, affordable and secure energy. Prediction and mitigation of coastal change (including sea level rise and extreme events) is a consequence of the climate emergency. The creation of jobs in marine energy and the associated supply chain supports the blue economy.
Lot Information
Laboratory Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV) instruments
For accurate reading of velocity and turbulence at a point close to the instrument within the Swansea University wave flume and other laboratory environments, purchase of velocity measurement systems with a smaller measurement head. This could be Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter or an alternative technology with the same accuracy. As these are laboratory instruments, there is no requirement to be fully waterproof. Options: As an alternative, please provide optional pricing for a "profiling" measurement of flow in the boundary layer.
Options: Please see tender documents
5 beam Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP)Tidal performance measurement requires a good understanding of the flow field through the water column. Stand-alone self-recording field instruments are required for both velocity and turbulence measurements. ADCPs will be supplied with seabed frames and moorings suitable for high flow rate environments.
Options: Please see tender documents
Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter (ADV) instrumentsStand-alone self-recording field instruments are required for accurate reading of velocity and turbulence at a point close to the instrument, in 3 dimensions at high sample rate. This could be Acoustic Doppler Velocimeter or an alternative technology with the same accuracy.
Options: Please see tender documents
Surface floating / towed Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP)Measurement of flow from a surface floating ADCP unit, the float should contain GPS and orientation measurement to accurately locate the measurement point. Stand-alone self recording field instruments are required for both velocity and turbulence measurements.
Options: Please see tender documents
Wave flume multi-axis load cellsThe Coastal Engineering Laboratory of the College of Engineering heavily contributes to marine renewable energy research and development by testing scale models of new, innovative marine energy devices and support infrastructure such as underwater cables. The laboratory is equipped with state-of-the art wave channel, capacitance type wave gauges, Particle Imaging Velocimeter, a Laser Doppler Velocimeter and a bed profiler. However, the laboratory lacks the capacity to measure forces on marine energy devices, which is an essential component of marine energy device and infrastructure testing. We will purchase inertial measurement units to track movements and acceleration.
Options: Please see tender documents
Current flume wave paddleThis device will expand the equipment available in the fluid labs for undergraduate and postgraduate students research for small experiments including waves and currents. The wave paddle will be included in the Armfield S6-MKIII Glass Sided Tilting current flume (cross section 300mm wide x 450mm max depth) available in the fluid laboratory (flow rate 38 l/s max). This laboratory lacks the capacity to measure waves in the flume, which is an essential component of some of the modules in the Faculty of Science and engineering. We will add this device to the pre-existent current flume available in the fluid lab.
Options: Please see tender documents
High speed cameraThe high-speed camera will be used to enhance measurement in a range of experiments relevant to marine renewable energy. The camera will be used to investigate platform motion for floating marine renewable devices; to investigate vegetated coastal areas as green coastal defences (high speed video camera will be used to capture flow field within vegetation); to investigate the dynamic deflection of fixed marine renewable energy related structure under wave loading and to investigate wave-structure interaction in very high resolution.
Options: Please see tender documents
Acoustic suspended sediment profiler - labA device to measure sediment in suspension at laboratory scale and to do suspended sediment research. To be used to measure sediment profiles in vegetated coastal areas and measuring turbulence around breaking waves.
