Impact of spatially varying flow conditions on the prediction of fatigue loads of a tidal turbine

Site development for tidal turbines relies upon a good understanding of the onset flow conditions, with disk averaged velocity typically used as a reference to define turbine power and mean loading. This work investigates the variation of onset flow conditions which occur for the same disk averaged...
