Tidal Turbine Benchmarking Exercise: Environmental Characterisation and Geometry Specification. Presented at European Wave and Tidal Energy Conference (EWTEC) 2021, Plymouth, UK

Uncertainty in tidal turbine loading contributes significantly to conservatism in turbine design. This uncertainty originates not only from a lack of knowledge of the flow field at a particular site, but also from lack of understanding of the fundame...
