Experimental investigation of the impact of tidal turbine blade design on performance in turbulent flow

The nature of tidal channel flows presents unique challenges to tidal turbine designers due to the high levels of unsteady flow from large-scale ocean turbulence. This causes fluctuating loads on the turbine blades, leading to integrity and performance issues. This paper outlines an experimental cam...
