Design of a hydrokinetic turbine [PDF]

open access: yesWIT Transactions on Ecology and the Environment, 2015
Hydrokinetic turbine power production depends on the interaction between the rotor and water. Therefore, an optimum geometry of the rotor must be designed and constructed to capture the maximum water energy and convert it into a usable energy. The steps involved in the design and numerical simulation of a small horizontal axis hydrokinetic turbine ...
