Design context for tidal current energy: The Agulhas current stream

2010 IEEE International Energy Conference, 2010
This paper presents an overview of the design and operation of tidal energy conversion systems. The authors discuss tidal energy as a form of renewable energy in comparison to wind energy, especially the close resemblance between the design and operation of the turbine principles used for the two types of renewable energy.

Case study: Tidal current energy potential in Bangladesh

2013 International Conference on Informatics, Electronics and Vision (ICIEV), 2013
In developing country like Bangladesh, the demand of electrical energy is very higher than the available production. At present, the electricity supply deficiency is about 1500 to 2000 MW /day i.e. the total supply is 4000 to 4500 MW/day within the demand of 6000 MW/day for this reason power failure has become an acute problem in our country.

Limits to the predictability of tidal current energy

OCEANS 2010 MTS/IEEE SEATTLE, 2010
The predictability of tidal currents in the context of hydrokinetic power generation are assessed using current data from a series of surveys in Admiralty Inlet, Puget Sound, Washington, USA. Both current speed and kinetic power density are shown to be well-described by harmonic analysis. Three challenges to predictability are identified.

Tidal current energy assessment for Johnstone Strait, Vancouver Island

Proceedings of the Institution of Mechanical Engineers, Part A: Journal of Power and Energy, 2007
The maximum tidal power potential of Johnstone Strait, BC, Canada is evaluated using a two-dimensional finite element model (TIDE2D) with turbines simulated in certain regions by increasing the drag. Initially, side channels are closed off so that the flow is forced through one channel to test the validity of a general analytic theory [1] with ...
