Hydrodynamic Performance Analysis of the Vertical Axis Twin-Rotor Tidal Current Turbine

The goal of this manuscript is to investigate the influence of relative distance between the twin rotors on the hydrodynamic performance of the vertical axis twin-rotor tidal current turbine. Computational fluid dynamics (CFD) simulations based on commercial software ANSYS-CFX have been performed to...
