Abstract: An analysis of the vortex dynamics in the wake of three different freestream turbine concepts is conducted to gain a better understanding of the main processes affecting the energy recovery in their wakes. The turbine ...

Abstract: This paper describes a study of the impact of confinement on the hydrodynamic performance of oscillatingfoils hydrokinetic turbines (OFHT). This work aims to contribute to the development of standards applying to marine ...

Abstract: Hydraulic turbines are more frequently used for power regulation and thus spend more time providing spinning reserve for electrical grids. Spinning reserve requires the turbine to operate at its synchronous rotation speed, ...
