Numerical simulation tool for moored marine hydrokinetic turbines

Numerical simulation tool for moored marine hydrokinetic turbines

The research presented in this thesis utilizes Blade Element Momentum (BEM) theory with a dynamic wake model to customize the OrcaFlex numeric simulation platform in order to allow modeling of moored Ocean Current Turbines (OCTs). This work merges the advanced cable modeling tools available withi...
