Harnessing 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...
متن کاملModeling the Energy Output from an In-Stream Tidal Turbine Farm
This paper is based on a recent paper presented in the 2007 IEEE SMC conference by the same authors [1], discussing an approach to predicting energy output from an instream tidal turbine farm. An in-stream tidal turbine is a device for harnessing energy from tidal currents in channels, and functions in a manner similar to a wind turbine. A group of such turbines distributed in a site is called ...
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 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 کاملNumerical 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...
