Flow Misalignment and Tidal Stream Turbines
Extensive Research and Development (R&D) within the tidal energy industry is pushing this sector towards commercial viability, with full scale prototypes starting to meet the challenges of the marine environment. This paper combines velocity data collected from Ramsey Sound (Pembrokeshire, Wales), with Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) to assess the impact of non-rectilinear flows on turbine r...
متن کاملMulti objective optimization of horizontal axis tidal current turbines, using Meta heuristics algorithms
The performance of horizontal axis tidal current turbines (HATCT) strongly depends on their geometry. According to this fact, the optimum performance will be achieved by optimized geometry. In this research study, the multi objective optimization of the HATCT is carried out by using four different multi objective optimization algorithms and their performance is evaluated in combination with bla...
متن کاملPerformance and Condition Monitoring of Tidal Stream Turbines
Research within the Cardiff Marine Energy Research Group (CMERG) has considered the integrated mathematical modelling of Tidal Stream Turbines (TST). The modelling studies are briefly reviewed. This paper concentrates on the experimental validation testing of small TST models in a water flume facility. The dataset of results, and in particular the measured axial thrust signals are analysed via ...
متن کاملEvaluating of VIC-3L Land Surface Model for Simulation of Stream Flow of Gharesou watershed
Land-surface models are widely used to simulate and predict the movement of momentum, energy, and matter between the biosphere and the atmosphere at local, regional and global scales. In this study, in order to evaluate the performance of this model in daily simulation of discharge in Gharesou watershed, using a spatial resolution of 0.125 degrees, satellite imagery and global databases to prov...
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...
