Near wake hydrodynamics of a horizontal axis tidal turbine

The thesis describes a programme of velocity measurement within the flow field of a horizontal axis tidal turbine model by particle image velocimetry (PIV). These measurements were analysed to aid the understanding of near wake processes and to provide data of high quality and resolution for the val...
