This study addresses the biofouling challenges in Tidal Stream Turbines (TSTs) to ensure
their reliable and optimal operation. In this context, it is proposed an effective methodology …

Tidal stream turbines (TST) deployed in open-water energetic sites are often unintentionally
at yaw to the incoming flow that causes performance degradation and deflection of the wake …

Tidal turbine arrays are planed to be installed in areas with strong currents where the flow
can often be sheared throughout the water column. To study the shear flow effects on tidal …

Straight-bladed vertical-axis hydrokinetic turbines have a number of advantages for power
extraction from river, tidal, and ocean currents. They are simple to construct, the generator …

Horizontal axis tidal turbines (HATT) conversion of ocean tidal waves into electricity
represents a promising source of clean and sustainable energy. However, the widespread …

Harnessing the power of tidal streams is a sustainable way of exploiting renewable marine
energy resources. It involves installing tidal stream turbines underwater to harness the …
