Flow direction effects on tidal stream turbines [PDF]
This thesis investigated the non-dimensional performance characteristics of a tidal stream turbine and how\ud they varied in response to changes in flow direction. The problem was considered from an industrial\ud perspective and used the commercial software package ANSYS CFX and a 1:20th scale experimental turbine.\ud Initial considerations analysed ...

ACTUATOR-LINE CFD MODELLING OF TIDAL-STREAM TURBINES
, 2016 CFD modelling of tidal turbines is described. For computational efficiency rotors are represented by rotating actuator lines and nacelles by partially-blocked cells. The computational implementation includes an arbitrary Lagrangian-Eulerian (ALE) approach to free-surface movement for wave motion.

Optimization of Airfoil Shape for aBidirectional Tidal Stream Turbine
, 2021 A tidal turbine design needs to consider the harsh environment of the sea. Reducing the number of moving parts is therefore desirable. A tidal stream is relatively predictable with small directional variance. To avoid a yaw gear an attractive option is to instead use a reversible airfoil, allowing the turbine to operate in both ebb and tide.
