Numerical Study on Self-Starting Performance of Darrieus Vertical Axis Turbine for Tidal Stream Energy Conversion
Self-starting performance is a key factor in the evaluation of a Darrieus straight-bladed vertical axis turbine. Most traditional studies have analyzed the turbine’s self-starting capability using the experimental and numerical data of the forced rotation. A 2D numerical model based on the computational fluid dynamics (CFD) software ANSYS-Fluent was developed to simulate the self-starting proce...
متن کاملStudy of NACA 0015 for Diffuser Design in Tidal Current Turbine Applications (TECHNICAL NOTE)
Tidal energy is the most foreseeable form of renewable energy. Tidal energy can be harnessed by tidal barrage, tidal fence and tidal current technologies. Present efforts are focused on diffuser augmented tidal turbines that exploit the kinetic energy of the tidal currents. The power output by a tidal turbine is directly proportional to the cube of velocity of incoming fluid flow. Thus, even a ...
متن کاملDarrieus Wind Turbine Performance Prediction: Computational Modeling
The Vertical Axis Wind Turbines Darrieus is facing a rapid installations growth due to the interest for a decentralizing generation. The Darrieus aerodynamic behavior analysis is a hard computational task. This paper starts by offering an insight into the Darrieus wind turbines performance prediction and proposes an algorithm based on the Multiple Streamtube modeling as a prediction approach in...
متن کاملDesign and testing of a contra-rotating tidal current turbine
A contra-rotating marine current turbine has a number of attractive features: near-zero reactive torque on the support structure, near-zero swirl in the wake, and high relative interrotor rotational speeds. Modified blade element modelling theory has been used to design and predict the characteristics of such a turbine, and a model turbine and test rig have been constructed. Tests in a towing t...
متن کاملExperimental Studies on Savonius-type Vertical Axis Turbine for Low Marine Current Velocity
Renewable energy resources need to be explored to maintain and meet energy demand and replace the slowly depleting fossil fuels. Malaysia, surrounded by sea with long coastlines, is poised to exploit the potential of this energy. This research work aims at designing a suitable device to extract energy from Malaysian sea current. Malaysia’s ocean has a low current velocity averaging 0.56 m/s, ...
