Evaluation of a Model for Predicting the Tidal Velocity in Fjord Entrances
Sufficiently accurate and low-cost estimation of tidal velocities is of importance when evaluating a potential site for a tidal energy farm. Here we suggest and evaluate a model to calculate the tidal velocity in fjord entrances.
