Unsteady hydrodynamics of full-scale tidal turbines [PDF]
, 2018 Due to the lack of full-scale measurements of the flow around tidal turbine blades, it is not clear if unsteadiness in the background flow can induce dynamic stall and the significance of this on the rotor’s performance. To investigate, we develop a model that couples dynamic stall, rotational augmentation and blade element momentum theory with real ...

Development of a contra-rotating tidal current turbine and analysis of performance [PDF]
, 2007 A contra-rotating marine current turbine has a number of attractive features: nearzero reactive torque on the support structure, near-zero swirl in the wake, and high relative inter-rotor rotational speeds.

Reliability prediction for tidal turbines
, 2021 Marine renewable energy has the potential to form a key part of the renewable electricity generation arsenal that is required for society to prevent catastrophic global warming. Device reliability is one of the great engineering hurdles facing the sector; operating cost effectively in the harsh open ocean is very challenging.
