摘要：The research explained in this paper was carried out to analyze and design a point absorber wave energy convertor for Assaluyeh coastal on Persian Gulf. The geographical conditions of this region have some local short waves which may be ideal to use this type of energy convertor. According to the collecting of wave data and using an optimized buoy, it is concluded that the adjustments on damping and natural frequency have more effect on average heave displacement. Therefore, by changing the shape of flat buoy to conical cylindrical, the drag coefficient that has direct effect on the damping of the buoy could be reduced. Regarding the length to diameter ratio of 1.7 for the selected buoy, changing its shape from flat cylinder to conical cylinder causes the drag coefficient to decrease by 50 %, which is followed by 20% increase in average amplitude of heave motion from 0.524-0.625m. This increase in average amplitude heave is efficacious in increase power buoy around 45 watts.
