The diagram given shows the design and the working way of a wave-energy machine and its proper locations.
For the design, There are 2 chambers which are the bottom and the top part. As the water level increases, some of the airflow then passes through a gap resulting in the bottom turbine to rotate producing electricity by the generator but the unwanted airflow can either flow out of the machine or go back to the waves.
For the top chamber, there is also an opening allowing airflow that also contributes to the electricity making both of the turbines rotate at the same time which leads to more powerful energy. Location options for the wave-energy machines depend on the waves if the waves are larger the output is, of course, higher making the installation cost more expensive but if the waves are smaller, the output is lower and the installation cost will be cheaper.
