This site-wide search returns results for all documents and events in Tethys Engineering, prioritizing the best matches. Partial word matches are returned (e.g. "engineer" finds "engineering"), but every entered term must be found. If you don't find any results, try reducing the number of words entered or removing special characters. Filters to the right can help narrow your search. Tethys Engineering features an integrated search with other marine renewable energy databases in PRIMRE - click the buttons below "Showing Results for" to search other integrated databases.

… Converters up to the pre-prototype scale (Stages 1 to 3). It includes the hydraulic laboratory test programs, where environmental conditions are controlled so they can be scheduled, and the … are adjusted and flexible to accommodate these conditions. This document describes the minimum test programs that form the basis of a structured technology development schedule. For each … design statement, technical drawings, selection of scale and facility based on physical laws, site data and other inputs; b: Device representation and characterization, including the physical …

Lundin et al.
… recently deployed an experimental hydrokinetic power station for in-stream experiments at a site in a river. This paper briefly describes the deployment process and reports some initial results from measurements made at the test site. … 8824 …

… green energy technology. Taiwan Ocean Research Institute deployed an ADCP mooring in a field test site to collect current profile data of upper 500m during August, 2015 to March, 2016. As a whole, the mean current velocities fluctuated highly in the test site due to the reciprocating tidal current in Luzon Strait. Such fluctuations become an …

… turbine standards and are used in design software) to turbulence measurements from two tidal test sites in Scotland and Canada. Here, we show that the two sites have different levels of … to theoretical models, with significant variability within nearby locations at the same site. The agreement with spectral models is shown to be depth-dependent. The vertical component … stream-wise spectrum is better represented by the von Kármán model. With the exception of one site, the shear profiles follow a power law, although with a different exponent to that commonly …

… consumption at all times has been implemented to meet demand throughout the year. In order to test the performance of the PSO, the results were compared to those obtained by the genetic … to model an island residential loads variation. The Alderney Race (Raz-Blanchard in French)site is chosen as a case study for our marine energy system because its currents are among the …

Burman and Walker
This paper presents an overview of ocean energy technology as a source of renewable energy for U.S. Federal sites. It investigates ocean energy resources and new technologies under development to capture that energy. These technologies span:
- Wave energy
- Tidal Energy
- Marine current energy
- Ocean thermal energy conversion (OTEC)
A brief history…

Results are also presented from a four-month field test of the prototype stereo-optical camera system. A combination of passive (copper rings and … validation is required and traditional methods often require prohibitively expensive test facilities. Further, CFD simulations are not able to predict added mass, which can be …

… to indicate an interest area for trial tests of modelling a turbine farm. The northern region site, on the structural scenario, stands out keeping high conversion rates during events of great … associated with the presence of the physical structure which enhances the efficiency of the site. No significant differences on the temporal variability pattern between the simulations …
