Modeling the Energy Output from an In-Stream Tidal Turbine Farm
Journal of Computers, 2009 This paper is based on a recent paper presented in the 2007 IEEE SMC conference by the same authors, discussing an approach to predicting energy output from an instream tidal turbine farm. An in-stream tidal turbine is a device for harnessing energy from tidal currents in channels, and functions in a manner similar to a wind turbine.
