Hydrodynamic Characterisation of a Garman-Type Hydrokinetic Turbine
This paper presents a numerical study of the effects of the inclination angle of the turbine rotation axis with respect to the main flow direction on the performance of a prototype hydrokinetic turbine of the Garman type. In particular, the torque and force coefficients are evaluated as a function o...
