ARRECIFE SYSTEMS

Arrecife project was born thanks to the research of Ph.D. Professor José Javier Doria in the field of fluids mechanics for over 25 years. After years of experimentation, he could demonstrate how there was a formula to be followed in the design of turbines and different airfoils. This led to improvements applicable in the fields of aerodynamics and hydrodynamics... What started as a study of the number of blades that could be introduced in the production of a turbine, eventually became a long investigation which has obtained great results in other fields: from a Guinness Record for the carry of a golf club (due to a more efficient design in terms of aerodynamics) to a new geometric figure... We capture the waves' power and transform it into electricity. Arrecife simulates the natural behaviour of a coral reef thanks to a cross flow turbines system.
