Parametric characterization of an experimental vertical axis hydro turbine

The current research focuses on the design, fabrication, and testing of an experimental vertical axis tidal current turbine model to obtain first hand experimental data for use in validating numerical codes. In addition to obtaining repeatable experimental results using an entirely new system develo...
