Performance Estimation of Ducted and Bare Tidal Turbines using CFD [PDF]

open access: yesEPJ Web of Conferences
The main objective of this study was to investigate the effect of flow contraction created by a duct on the power generation of a tidal turbine prototype. As a preliminary step in the development of a full-scale floating bridge-type ducted turbine, aimed

Riverine Migration Success of Salmonid Smolts Following Their Entrainment in a Hydropower Off‐Channel Diversion in an Upland River

open access: yesRiver Research and Applications, Volume 42, Issue 6, Page 1272-1282, July 2026.
ABSTRACT Salmonid fishes typically express anadromy. During their juvenile riverine emigration, their downstream movements can be inhibited by hydropower schemes that entrain fish in their intakes. Here, the riverine migration success of smolts of brown trout Salmo trutta (“trout smolt”) and Atlantic salmon Salmo salar smolts (“salmon smolt”) was ...

Optimal design of a tidal turbine

open access: yesIOP 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 ...

An Experimental Study on the Darrieus-Savonius Turbine for the Tidal Current Power Generation

open access: yesJournal of Fluid Science and Technology, 2008
The Darrieus turbine is popular for tidal current power generation in Japan. It is simple in structure with straight wings rotating around a vertical axis, so that it has no directionality against the motion of tidal flow which changes its direction ...

Efficient Harvesting of Irregular and Low‐Frequency Mechanical Energy via Hybridized Electromagnetic‐Triboelectric Systems

open access: yesSmall, Volume 22, Issue 39, 13 July 2026.
ABSTRACT The rapid expansion of the Internet of Things (IoT) and wearable electronics necessitates sustainable power sources to replace the limited electrochemical battery. While mechanical energy harvesting offers a promising solution, traditional harvesters face challenges of irregular and low−frequency environmental sources. This review presents the

The effect of a barnacle-shaped excrescence on the hydrodynamic performance of a tidal turbine blade section

open access: yesOcean Engineering, 2020
Efficient tidal turbine designs rely upon the hydrodynamic performance of the turbine blade sections. A significant consideration for the likely power generation capacity of a tidal turbine is the effect of biofouling on the blade performance.

Large Eddy Simulation Of Tidal Turbines

open access: yes, 2017
Understanding of hydrodynamics involved in the ow around tidal turbines is essential to enhance their performance and resilience, as they are designed to operate in harsh marine environments. During their lifespan, they are subjected to high velocities with large levels of turbulence that demand their design to be greatly optimised.
