The prediction of the hydrodynamic performance of tidal current turbines
Nowadays tidal current energy is considered to be one of the most promising alternative green energy resources and tidal current turbines are used for power generation. Prediction of the open water performance around tidal turbines is important for the reason that it can give some advice on installation and array of tidal current turbines.

Power Coefficient Analysis of Double-blade Half-rotating Impeller Tidal Turbine Operating at Yaw [PDF]
The double-blade half-rotating impeller tidal turbine (DHITT) is a new type of vertical shaft tidal current turbine with lift and resistance performance. The power coefficient of the DHITT is affected by the flow direction. In order to research the power

An unsteady hydrodynamic model for tidal current turbines [PDF]
Due to concerns about the impacts of carbon emissions on the environment, the security of supply of electricity and the likelihood of achieving “peak-oil” in the near future, governments have legislated to reduce reliance on fossil fuels. An attractive alternative is power obtained from tidal currents, and the coast of the British Isles is especially ...

Performance Evaluation of a Tidal Current Turbine with Bidirectional Symmetrical Foils [PDF]
As one might expect, tidal currents in terms of ebb and flood tides are approximately bidirectional. A Horizontal Axial Tidal Turbine (HATT) with unidirectional foils has to be able to face the current directions in order to maximize current energy harvesting. There are two regular solutions to keep a HATT always facing the direction of the flow, which

Coupled Interactions Analysis of a Floating Tidal Current Power Station in Uniform Flow
For a floating tidal current power station moored in the sea, the mutual interactions between the carrier and the turbine are pretty complex. Current simulation methods based on potential flow theory could not consider the complicated viscous effects ...
