Integrating variable and non-dispatchable renewable power generation into existing power
systems will have consequences for their operation and future expansion. These impacts …

Placing mechanical devices into fast-moving tidal streams to generate clean and predictable
electricity is a develo** technology. This review covers the fundamental fluid mechanics of …

The ambient turbulence intensity in the upstream flow plays a decisive role in the behaviour
of horizontal axis marine current turbines. Experimental trials, run in the IFREMER flume …

Laboratory scale testing of tidal turbines has generated valuable datasets to support
optimised turbine design and numerical model validation. However, tidal sites are highly …

Temporal variability in renewable energy presents a major challenge for electrical grid
systems. Tides are considered predictable due to their regular periodicity; however, the …

A detailed experimental investigation of the wake propagation behind a horizontal axis
turbine with three blades was conducted in a recirculating water flume. An Acoustic Doppler …

The development of marine current turbine arrays depends on the understanding of the
interaction effects that exist between turbines in close proximity. Moreover, the ambient …

Atmospheric and Oceanic Technology Volume 34 Issue 6 (2017) Jump to Content Logo Logo …

The ocean contains a variety of renewable energy resources, little of which has been
exploited. Here, we review both tidal range and tidal stream energy, with a focus on the …

As the marine renewable energy industry evolves, in parallel with an increase in the quantity
of available data and improvements in validated numerical simulations, it is occasionally …
