An Investigation of Tidal Stream Turbine Wake Development Using Modified BEM–AD Model

Tidal stream turbines (TST) are a promising option for electricity generation to meet the ever-increasing demand for energy. The actuator disk (AD) method is often employed to represent a TST, to evaluate the TST operating in a tidal flow. While this method can effectively reduce the computational c...
