Simulating tidal turbines with multi-scale mesh optimisation techniques
Embedding tidal turbines within simulations of realistic large-scale tidal flows is a highly multi-scale problem that poses significant computational challenges. Here this problem is tackled using actuator disc momentum (ADM) theory and Reynolds-averaged Navier– Stokes (RANS) with, for the first tim...
