Performance of non-uniform tidal turbine arrays in uniform flow

Abstract:

Theoretical models suggest that in order to maximise their collective power out put, tidal turbines should be arranged in a single cross-stream row and optimally spaced to exploit local blockage effects. However, because it is assumed that the turbines within these arrays are identical, such models do not consider the possibility of enhanced power production through the exploitation of spanwise variations in local blockage and resistance. In this paper, we use depth-averaged numerical simulat...
