The efficiency of a turbine in a tidal channel
There is an upper bound to the amount of power that can be generated by turbines in tidal channels as too many turbines merely block the flow. One condition for achievement of the upper bound is that the turbines are deployed uniformly across the channel, with all the flow through them, but this may interfere with other uses of the channel. An isolated turbine is more effective in a channel tha...
متن کاملAn approach to the characterisation of the performance of a tidal stream turbine
In order to better manage and maintain deployed Tidal Stream Turbine (TST) devices their response to complicated and severe loading mechanisms must be established. To aid this process the research presented details a methodology for mapping TST operational data, taken under a variety of operating conditions, to a set of model parameters. The parameter sets were developed based on a TST rotor to...
متن کاملassessment of the efficiency of s.p.g.c refineries using network dea
data envelopment analysis (dea) is a powerful tool for measuring relative efficiency of organizational units referred to as decision making units (dmus). in most cases dmus have network structures with internal linking activities. traditional dea models, however, consider dmus as black boxes with no regard to their linking activities and therefore do not provide decision makers with the reasons...
The Influence of Solidity on the Performance Characteristics of a Tidal Stream Turbine
The performance characteristics of a tidal stream turbine are critical when assessing its economical viability. The solidity of the rotor, which is a function of the blade chord length and the number of blades, will affect the performance characteristics, from both a power output and a structural
متن کاملExperimental Analysis and Evaluation of the Numerical Prediction of Wake Characteristics of Tidal Stream Turbine
It is important to understand tidal stream turbine performance and flow field, if tidal energy is to advance. The operating condition of a tidal stream turbine with a supporting structure has a significant impact on its performance and wake recovery. The aim of this work is to provide an understanding of turbine submerged depth that governs the downstream wake structure and its recovery to the ...
