Validation of an actuator line method for tidal turbine rotors
Computations of the blade loading and the local flow field around the Model Rotor Experiments In Controlled Conditions (MEXICO) rotor are presented using an actuator line method, implemented within the open source code OpenFOAM. The nacelle and near wake mesh refinement are shown to have little infl...
