Operational coastal ocean modelling for tidal stream turbine arrays
- 01 January 2025
Our development of operational coastal ocean models for simulating tidal stream turbine arrays was published in Applied Ocean Research. Led by Nguyen Q. Chien, this research advances the modelling capabilities for assessing the hydrodynamic impacts of tidal energy installations.
Modelling the Impact of Structure Generated Shadowing on Tidal Stream Turbine Performance
- 01 January 2025
This conference paper investigates the effects of turbine foundation shadowing on performance, using CFD to assess cyclic loading and its implications for design.
Effects of bathymetric constraints in tidal stream array layout design
- 01 January 2025
This study examines how bathymetric features affect the design of tidal stream arrays, using the MeyGen project as a case study to highlight constraints on energy extraction.
