The Aerofoil Panel is like an aerofoil designed to create low pressure when placed in an air or water stream. The lowered pressure can be utilized in various ways, either directly e.g. to draw air in ventilation systems and water in seawater pipelines, or via turbines to drive e.g. electrical generators.

Aerofoil Panel energy conversion method:

• Creates lift similar to an aircraft wing
• The lifting force results in a new air or water flow through the panel
• The kinetic energy of the new air or water flow is via a turbine converted into mechanical rotary energy    

Welcome to the web site of Ing Arvid Nesheim (IAN) who offers machines and equipment for conversion and utilisation of the energy of sea waves, tidal streams, ocean currents and rivers. The energy conversion machines are easy to use, robust and suitable for use in small and large sea waves and rivers.

Oscillating Device energy conversion method:

• Spring-mass system designed to create oscillating motion resonance
• Includes 2 or more oscillating water chambers
• The amplification of the oscillating motion caused by the resonance is resisted by electro mechanical brakes i.e. electrical generators that generate electricity  

The Oscillating Device which is designed to convert the energy of sea waves, comprises an annual shaped floater mounted to a floating column by means of an universal joint-mechanism, and two water chambers which are serially coupled by means of springs to the lower end of the column. The machine is equipped with an electrical generator which is activated by pivotal and vertical motion between the floater, column and water chambers. Read more
