Actuator disk methods for tidal turbine arrays by Hunter, W

“…Although it is impractical to array real turbines across the entire width of a channel it has been proposed to use short arrays of turbines making use of local constructive interference (blockage) effects; Nishino & Willden (2012) showed that although the phenomenal power limits of Garrett & Cummins are unobtainable in a real flow, a significant uplift in the limit of power extraction can be achieved for short fences of turbines arrayed normally to the flow in wide cross-section channels. …”
