Power and thrust capping of tidal stream turbines: a case study of the Pentland Firth

It will not be practical for tidal stream turbines to extract all the peaks in energy over the tidal cycle. It is widely assumed that some form of power capping strategy will be required. In this paper we examine this using a 2D shallow water model of tidal hydrodynamics of the Pentland Firth. We ar...
