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 ...

Surface Characterisation of Kolk-Boils within Tidal Stream Environments Using UAV Imagery
High-flow tidal stream environments, targeted for tidal turbine installations, exhibit turbulent features, at fine spatio-temporal scales (metres and seconds), created by site-specific topography and bathymetry. Bed-derived turbulent features (kolk-boils)

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 ...

Physical Modelling of Tidal Stream Turbine Wake Structures under Yaw Conditions
Tidal stream turbines may operate under yawed conditions due to variability in ocean current directions. Insight into the wake structure of yawed turbines can be essential to ensure efficient tidal stream energy extraction, especially for turbine arrays ...
