A note on the effects of local blockage and dynamic tuning on tidal turbine performance

Numerical simulations are used to explore the potential for local blockage effects and dynamic tuning strategies to enhance the performance of turbines in tidal channels. Fulland partial-width arrays of turbines, modelled using the volume-flux-constrained actuator disc and blade element momentum the...
