A Tidal Resource Evaluation-Based Method for Tidal Current Generation Farm Allocation Considering the Directionality of Tidal Currents

IEEE Transactions on Sustainable Energy, 2020
This article proposes a tidal resource evaluation-based planning method for profitable and reasonable allocations of tidal current generation farms (TCGFs). The directionality and variability of tidal current velocity (TCV) and their correlation are addressed. First, a TCGF power output model is developed.

Tidal current fluctuations in the Soya Current

Journal of the Oceanographical Society of Japan, 1987
Long-term current measurements were carried out near the Soya Strait in the Okhotsk Sea during a period from February 1980 to September 1982. The data were divided into five segments, each being 150 days long, and the tidal ellipse parameters of major axis, minor axis, orientation, and phase for the four major constituents (M2, S2, K1 and O1 tides ...

Tidal and current energy

2019
The book chapter deals with both tidal rise and fall energy and hydrokinetic energy from tides, ocean currents and rivers. (River energy is included because the proposed technologies share some characteristics with those proposed for tidal currents.) Out of the many devices proposed, some have been built, but most of these have disappeared as a result ...

Tidal current asymmetry in shallow estuaries and tidal creeks

Continental Shelf Research, 2002
Abstract We examine tidal asymmetry in a 100-km long coastal plain estuary, a 15-km long tidal creek closed at the end, and a small side channel of a coastal plain estuary closed at low water. Current meter and water depth data were harmonically analyzed for M2 and the M4 and M6 overtide.

Current Status of Tidal Power

Journal of Canadian Petroleum Technology, 1983
Introduction It goes without saying that tidal power is an environmentally clean, renewableenergy source. Although tidal energy is available in abundance, there arerelatively few locations in the world where the tidal range makes this form ofenergy economically exploitable under existing conditions.

Effects of Mean and Tidal Current Interaction on the Tidally Induced Residual Current

Journal of Physical Oceanography, 1987
Abstract A weakly nonlinear depth-dependent tidal model has been developed to study the effects of mean and tidal current interaction on the tidally induced residual current. The model is applied to the northern and southern sides of Georges Bank. The weakly nonlinear approximation is reasonable for the southern section, but only marginally applicable ...

Generating Power from Tidal Currents

Journal of Waterway, Port, Coastal, and Ocean Engineering, 2004
Power generation by tidal currents requires the establishment of a pressure difference across a turbine. This limits the power output to a fraction of the undisturbed energy flux through the same cross-sectional area, though the maximum possible value of this fraction is not well established.

Topographic rectification of tidal currents

Deep Sea Research Part B. Oceanographic Literature Review, 1983
Abstract The rectification of oscillatory tidal currents on the sloping sides of a low submarine bank is discussed using the moment method. This method has been previously used in shear dispersion studies where it is used to analyze the advection-diffusion equation.
