Assimilation of Velocity Data for Tidal Hydrodynamics Model Calibration
Journal of Advances in Modeling Earth Systems, Volume 18, Issue 8, August 2026.Abstract Assessing tidal stream energy resource typically involves the application of numerical models calibrated against sparse Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler (ADCP) data. This introduces significant challenges in energetic sites which are prone to significant spatiotemporal variations, like the Pentland Firth, Scotland, which is home to the world ...

Optimal design of a tidal turbine
IOP Conference Series: Earth and Environmental Science, 2012 An optimal design procedure has been applied to improve the design of an open-center tidal turbine. A specific software developed in C++ enables to generate the geometry adapted to the specific constraints imposed to this machine. Automatic scripts based on the AUTOGRID, IGG, FINE/TURBO and CFView software of the NUMECA CFD suite are used to evaluate ...
