The impact of turbulence and turbine operating condition on the wakes of tidal turbines [PDF]
Renewable Energy, 2021 Before initiating a study on the interaction of multiple wakes, it is imperative that turbine wake hydrodynamics are studied in isolation. In this paper CFD computer simulations of downstream turbine wakes have been run using a scale-resolving hybrid turbulence model known as a detached eddy simulation.

An analytical double-Gaussian wake model of ducted horizontal-axis tidal turbine
The Physics of Fluids, 2023 The wake development of a tidal turbine should be fully considered in the array arrangement. There are many studies on wake characteristics, mainly focusing on a conventional horizontal-axis turbine, while a ducted turbine has attracted little attention.

Structural performance of composite tidal turbine blades
Composite structures, 2021 Tidal turbine blades experience a significant bending moment in the root area during their long-term operation in a sea water environment. This necessitates using fibre reinforced polymer as the blade material to provide the required strength/stiffness ...
