Study 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 کاملTidal Stream Energy Extraction in Coastal Basins
Tidal Stream Energy Extraction in Coastal Basins A thesis submitted for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy Scott Draper St Catherine's College, Oxford Trinity Term 2011 In recent years the extraction of energy from tidal streams has grown in popularity as a potential source of clean renewable energy. To extract this energy, tidal devices, resembling underwater turbines or hydroplanes, are deplo...
متن کاملHydro-environmental Impact Assessment of the Significance of the Shape of Arrays of Tidal Stream Turbines
This study focuses on far-field hydro-environmental impacts of turbine arrays, with different shapes located in the Severn Estuary and Bristol Channel, UK, using a dynamically linked 1-D/2-D hydroenvironmental model. The estuary, including the Bristol Channel, is approximately 200 km long and has the third highest rise and fall of tide in the world, with typical spring tidal range of over 14 m,...
متن کاملTidal Turbines’ Layout in a Stream with Asymmetry and Misalignment
Abstract: A refined assessment of tidal currents variability is a prerequisite for successful turbine deployment in the marine environment. However, the numerical evaluation of the tidal kinetic energy resource relies, most of the time, on integrated parameters, such as the averaged or maximum stream powers. Predictions from a high resolution three-dimensional model are exploited here to charac...
متن کاملModelling of the flow field surrounding tidal turbine arrays for varying positions in a channel.
The modelling of tidal turbines and the hydrodynamic effects of tidal power extraction represents a relatively new challenge in the field of computational fluid dynamics. Many different methods of defining flow and boundary conditions have been postulated and examined to determine how accurately they replicate the many parameters associated with tidal power extraction. This paper outlines the r...
