Performance and Condition Monitoring of Tidal Stream Turbines [PDF]
PHM Society European Conference, 2014 Research within the Cardiff Marine Energy Research Group (CMERG) has considered the integrated mathematical modelling of Tidal Stream Turbines (TST). The modelling studies are briefly reviewed. This paper concentrates on the experimental validation testing of small TST models in a water flume facility.

Finite Element Analysis of Tidal Turbine Blade Subjected to Impact Loads from Sea Animals
Energies, 2021 The present work investigates structural response of tidal stream turbine blades subjected to impact loads from sea animals. A full-scale tidal turbine blade model was developed using a finite element modelling software ABAQUS, while a simplified ...

Improving tidal turbine array performance through the optimisation of layout and yaw angles
International Marine Energy Journal, 2022 Tidal stream currents change in magnitude and direction during flood and ebb tides. Setting the most appropriate yaw angles for a tidal turbine is not only important to account for the performance of a single turbine, but can also be significant for the

Assessment of arrays of in-stream tidal turbines in the Bay of Fundy [PDF]
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society A: Mathematical, Physical and Engineering Sciences, 2013 Theories of in-stream turbines are adapted to analyse the potential electricity generation and impact of turbine arrays deployed in Minas Passage, Bay of Fundy. Linear momentum actuator disc theory (LMADT) is combined with a theory that calculates the flux through the passage to determine both the turbine power and the impact of rows of turbine fences.
