Hydrodynamic Analysis of Horizontal Axis Tidal Current Turbine under the Wave-Current Condition

Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2020
To take advantage of the high tidal current velocity near the free surface, the horizontal axis turbine is installed, which inevitably causes hydrodynamic characteristics to effect the turbine by the waves.
