Experimental investigation of unsteady loading and fluid dynamics of tidal stream turbines

Abstract:

Tidal stream energy provides a largely untapped and predictable source of renewable energy with the potential to play a significant role in global decarbonisation efforts. However, the economic and technical challenges associated with tidal stream technologies, particularly the need to design systems capable of withstanding the harsh marine environment, present substantial barriers to its commercialisation. In the absence of a substantial body of available field data, and given the multitu...
