Effect of a Support Tower on the Performance and Wake of a Tidal Current Turbine

Effect of a Support Tower on the Performance and Wake of a Tidal Current Turbine

Tidal energy is one of the major sources of renewable energy. To accelerate the development of tidal energy, improved designs of Tidal Current Turbine (TCT) are necessary. The effect of tower on performance and wake of TCT is investigated using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) simulations. Transie...
