An optimal tuning strategy for tidal turbines. [PDF]
Proc Math Phys Eng Sci, 2016 Tuning wind and tidal turbines is critical to maximizing their power output. Adopting a wind turbine tuning strategy of maximizing the output at any given time is shown to be an extremely poor strategy for large arrays of tidal turbines in channels. This ‘impatient-tuning strategy’ results in far lower power output, much higher structural loads and ...

3D Simulation with Flow-Induced Rotation for Non-Deformable Tidal Turbines
Journal of Marine Science and Engineering, 2021 The overall potential for recoverable tidal energy depends partly on the tidal turbine technologies used. One of problematic points is the minimum flow velocity required to set the rotor into motion. The novelty of the paper is the setup of an innovative

Tidal energy extraction modifies tidal asymmetry and transport in a shallow, well-mixed estuary
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2023 Tidal energy extraction is increasingly being studied as a potential renewable energy resource in estuaries worldwide. Although it is understood that energy extraction via tidal stream turbines can modify currents and transport within estuaries, it is ...

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.
