Computational Fluid Dynamics based Performance Optimisation of Vertical Axis Marine Current Turbines

Rapid decrease in the fossil fuels in the last couple of decades has stirred the researchers to find alternative sources for the production of power. Wind and tidal energies are the two most promising alternatives to the fossil fuels.

The downstream wake response of marine current energy converters operating in shallow tidal flows

, 2011
This paper presents findings from an experimental study investigating the downstream wake response from marine current energy convertors operating in various degrees of vertical flow constraint. The paper investigates deep vertically unconstrained sites,

Design, commissioning and performance of a device to vary the turbulence in a recirculating flume

, 2013
Ambient turbulent flow structures are one of the key drivers that will determine the rate of wake recovery downstream of tidal turbines. For second and third generation arrays or farms such a parameter is critical for the determination of inter-device ...
