Downeast Turbines tested a tidal turbine prototype with novel rotor/channel system and lateral effluent discharge apparatus (LEDA), during five days of testing in the flume at Alden Lab. Three days of testing (July 12-14, 2021) focused on turbine power metrics of torque and rpm, which were low, and then two days of follow-up testing (July 27-28, 2021) focused on LEDA performance metrics of…

Data from a Nortek Signature1000 deployed on a lander for 14 days in Aug 2020 in the entrance to Sequim Bay, WA. Raw data were processed using the DOLfYN python package and standardized using the ME Data Pipeline python package, tsdat version 0.2.12. Processed data were partitioned into 24 hour increments and saved in the NETCDF file format.

This is an exercise in optimizing the flow through a shrouded axial turbine to have the least resistance and to have optimal output and torque and energy. In this study, different variates of the original geometry of the current turbine designed by Hydrokinetic Energy Corp. (HEC) were evaluated for energy efficiency using Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD). The objective was accomplished by a…
