Design procedure and performance estimation of tidal current power system [PDF]
The demand to secure an alternative resource has been increased recently rather than fossil or nuclear\ud powers. One of the affordable ocean energy is the tidal energy since it is considered as a reliable and predictable power\ud source.

Ocean Energy: Using the Ocean's Tides, Waves, and Heat to Generate Electricity [PDF]
, 2006 Key facts: - The oceans' tides, waves, current, and heat can be used to generate electricity. These resources are renewable, because the moon's gravity drives tides, and winds create waves.

Design, commissioning and performance of a device to vary the turbulence in a recirculating flume
, 2013 Ambient turbulent flow structures are one of the key drivers that will determine the rate of wake recovery downstream of tidal turbines. For second and third generation arrays or farms such a parameter is critical for the determination of inter-device ...

DFIG versus PMSG for marine current turbine applications [PDF]
, 2014 Emerging technologies for marine current turbine are mainly relevant to works that have been carried out on wind turbines and ship propellers. It is then obvious that many electric generator topologies could be used for marine current turbines. As in the

One-Dimensional Modelling of Marine Current Turbine Runaway Behaviour
Energies, 2016 If a turbine loses its electrical load, it will rotate freely and increase speed, eventually achieving that rotational speed which produces zero net torque. This is known as a runaway situation.
