Hydrodynamic Effects of Tidal-Stream Power Extraction for Varying Turbine Operating Conditions

Hydrodynamic Effects of Tidal-Stream Power Extraction for Varying Turbine Operating Conditions

Realistic evaluation of tidal-stream power extraction effects on local hydrodynamics requires the inclusion of the turbine’s operating conditions (TOC). An alternative approach for simulating the turbine’s array energy capture at a regional scale, momentum sink-TOC, is used to assess the impact of p...
