Tidal turbine array optimisation using the adjoint approach
Oceanic tides have the potential to yield a vast amount of renewable energy. Tidal stream generators are one of the key technologies for extracting and harnessing this potential. In order to extract an economically useful amount of power, hundreds of tidal turbines must typically be deployed in an array. This naturally leads to the question of how these turbines should be configured to extract ...
متن کاملDynamic Mesh Handling in Openfoam Applied to Fluid-structure Interaction Simulations
The power of OpenFOAM [1] in physical modelling stems from mimicking of partial differential equations in software, thus allowing rapid and reliable implementation of complex physical models. State-of-the art complex geometry handling and dynamic mesh features are essential for practical engineering use. This paper describes features of dynamic mesh support in OpenFOAM. Polyhedral mesh handling...

متن کاملThree-Dimensional Adaptive Mesh Refinement Simulations of Point-Symmetric Nebulae
Previous analytical and numerical work shows that the generalized interacting stellar winds model can explain the observed bipolar shapes of planetary nebulae very well. However, many circumstellar nebulae have a multipolar or point-symmetric shape. With two-dimensional calculations, Icke showed that these seemingly enigmatic forms can be easily reproduced by a two-wind model in which the confi...
متن کاملHarnessing Tidal Energy Using Vertical Axis Tidal Turbine
An overview of the current design practices in the field of Renewable Energy (RE) is presented; also paper delineates the background to the development of unique and novel techniques for power generation using the kinetic energy of tidal streams and other marine currents. Also this study focuses only on vertical axis tidal turbine. Tidal stream devices have been developed as an alternative meth...
