Ocean energy is replenished by
the sun and through tidal influences
of the moon and sun gravitational
forces.
Near-surface winds induce wave
action and cause wind-blown
currents at about 3% of the windcurrents at about 3% of the wind
speed.
Tides cause strong currents into
and out of coastal basins and rivers.
Ocean surface heating by some
70% of the incoming sunlight adds
to the surface water thermal
energy, causing expansion and

The Ranwara Shoals, to the north of the
site, create a shallow region through which
flow is accelerated, resulting in ideal
deployment conditions for the tidal
turbines. The site experiences less extreme
flows than, for example, the Pentland Firth
and the Bay of Fundy.
Millions of gallons of water flow onto
shore during tidal flows and away from
shore during ebb & surge tide periods.
The larger the tidal influence, the greater
the displacement of water and therefore
the more potential, Kinetic energy that can
be harvested during power generation.

was installed in Stranford Narrows in
Northern Ireland in 2008.
The prototype SeaGen turbine produces
1.2MW with currents of 2.4m/s or more. The
capacity factor exceeds 60%.
The facility is an accredited UK power
station, and can contribute up to
6,000MWh annually to the UK grid, the
equivalent of approximately 1500 homes.7/13/2015 19

Second Generation of Tidal Turbines
7/13/2015 28
Marine Current Turbines (MCT), probably
the most advanced of the current
developers, offer 1MW horizontal shaft
axial flow turbine units under the names
Seagen and Sea Array. The turbine units,
mounted in pairs on a monopile, use
variable pitch blades with a sufficient
range of pitch change to operate in both
tidal flow directions. The structure includes
a mechanism to raise the turbines to the
surface for maintenance purposes.

surface for maintenance purposes.
SMD Hydrovision has a horizontal shaft 2
bladed fixed pitch turbine with 18 m
diameter rotors device called TidEL, which
comprises two 500 kW turbines mounted
on a frame designed to float clear of the
seabed and to move in such a way as to
follow the tidal flow.
Tidal Generation Ltd is developing a 1 MW
horizontal shaft three blade fixed pitch turbine.
A 1MW prototype unit is due to be installed at
the European Marine Energy Centre in Orkney
in 2006. Commercial units are planned by
2010. Each turbine unit is
mounted on the frame attached to the
seabed. The frame is a lightweight structural
design for easy installation and removal and is
designed to follow the tidal flow.
Second Generation of Tidal Turbines
7/13/2015 30
Tidal Hydraulic Generators Ltd are developing
a horizontal shaft axial flow turbine of between
250 kW and 1 MW depending on stream
velocity for an array of five 6mdiameter rotors.
A prototype unit is planned for 2007 to be
followed by a 10 MW farm by 2009. The turbine
units are mounted on a frame attached the
seabed that can be installed or lifted within a
day. No information is available on whether
the blades are fixed or variable pitch to
facilitate bi-directional flow.

This tidal stream energy project has
compared the overall Economics of two
horizontal axis tidal turbine devices: a fixed
pitch, bi-directional, variable speed turbine
generator device with a variable pitch,
variable speed turbine generator device
that rotates to face into the tidal flow.
The project has established, theoretically, the
extent to which the loss in energy conversion

extent to which the loss in energy conversion
efficiency of the simpler to construct fixed
pitch device is counter balanced by a
reduction in capital and O&M costs and
whether the system is technically feasible
and sufficiently economic to warrant further
development.
The conclusion is that the simple fixed pitch,
bi-directional device is competitive on a life
cycle cost basis and worthy of further
consideration.
Introduction:
A variety of approaches is being taken to
the harnessing of tidal stream energy to
produce electrical energy for supply to the
grid. The hydrodynamic performance of the
sub-sea device will only be one parameter in
the lifetime cost of each system.
The marine environment is particularly
aggressive towards equipment operating
within it for extended periods, with limited

within it for extended periods, with limited
access or opportunity for routine inspection
and maintenance. The O&M element of the
lifetime cost of a tidal stream concept may
well be greater than the already significant
contribution of O&M costs to the cost per
MWh anticipated for offshore wind energy
and be a major determinant in the longer
term whole life commercial viability of tidal
stream energy.

Unlike a wind turbine, the tidal stream
turbine, being submerged, will have neither
a direct visual effect nor a noise effect on
human beings in normal conditions. There
are, however, a number of areas in which
submerged devices could have potentially
significant environmental impacts or raise
safety considerations for other maritime users
and activities.
Such areas include: ecology, pollution,
7/13/2015 35
Such areas include: ecology, pollution,
coastal processes and interference with the
tidal flow, noise and navigation safety
considerations. Such issues will need to be
taken into account in selecting a location for
an individual tidal stream turbine or an array
of turbines, and are likely to have cost and
time implications.
PERFORMANCE
The performance of devices that use the kinetic
energy associated with a current or wind the
performance is that of a low-head (wind or tidal)
turbine. In this case the available power P for a
given device Capture area A and associated
wind/current velocity V is
The gravitational attractions of the moon and
sun, as the earth rotates, generate local tidal
currents converting potential into kinetic energy.
The magnitude of the local tidal range is
7/13/2015 36
The magnitude of the local tidal range is
influenced strongly by the local seabed
bathymetry and shoreline orientation. The local
behaviour of tides is controlled by dominant
semi–diurnal (period 12hrs and 25 mins) and
diurnal periods and with monthly variations in
maximum and minimum range (spring and neap
tides). Predicting the time of local high and low
tides and to a lesser extent their magnitude has
occurred for many centuries. It is this
predictability that makes the use of tidal energy
attractive.
PERFORMANCE
7/13/2015 37
PRESSURE MAP:A simpler beam theory approach
was used to find the appropriate span wise t/c
variation. It is worth noting that the design
loading case is driven by the maximum spring
tide (rather than extreme events as required for
wind turbines).
Hydrodynamic loads (primarily in the f low
direction) rather than centripetal loads dominate
in the radial direction.

The project has established, theoretically, the extent to which the loss in energy conversion 7/13/2015 32 extent to which the loss in energy conversion efficiency of the simpler to construct fixed pitch device is counter balanced by a reduction in capital and O&M costs and whether the system is technically feasible and sufficiently economic to warrant further development. The conclusion is that the simple fixed pitch, bi-directional device is competitive on a life cycle cost basis and worthy of further consideration.
  • 33. Introduction: A variety of approaches is being taken to the harnessing of tidal stream energy to produce electrical energy for supply to the grid. The hydrodynamic performance of the sub-sea device will only be one parameter in the lifetime cost of each system. The marine environment is particularly aggressive towards equipment operating within it for extended periods, with limited COMMERTIAL VIABILITY OF A SIMPLECOMMERTIAL VIABILITY OF A SIMPLECOMMERTIAL VIABILITY OF A SIMPLECOMMERTIAL VIABILITY OF A SIMPLE TIDAL STREAM ENERGYTIDAL STREAM ENERGYTIDAL STREAM ENERGYTIDAL STREAM ENERGY ----A STUDY BY DTIA STUDY BY DTIA STUDY BY DTIA STUDY BY DTI 7/13/2015 33 within it for extended periods, with limited access or opportunity for routine inspection and maintenance. The O&M element of the lifetime cost of a tidal stream concept may well be greater than the already significant contribution of O&M costs to the cost per MWh anticipated for offshore wind energy and be a major determinant in the longer term whole life commercial viability of tidal stream energy. The agreed project scope was limited to horizontal

Environmental and other impactsEnvironmental and other impactsEnvironmental and other impactsEnvironmental and other impacts Unlike a wind turbine, the tidal stream turbine, being submerged, will have neither a direct visual effect nor a noise effect on human beings in normal conditions. There are, however, a number of areas in which submerged devices could have potentially significant environmental impacts or raise safety considerations for other maritime users and activities. Such areas include: ecology, pollution, 7/13/2015 35 Such areas include: ecology, pollution, coastal processes and interference with the tidal flow, noise and navigation safety considerations. Such issues will need to be taken into account in selecting a location for an individual tidal stream turbine or an array of turbines, and are likely to have cost and time implications.
  • 36. PERFORMANCE The performance of devices that use the kinetic energy associated with a current or wind the performance is that of a low-head (wind or tidal) turbine. In this case the available power P for a given device Capture area A and associated wind/current velocity V is The gravitational attractions of the moon and sun, as the earth rotates, generate local tidal currents converting potential into kinetic energy. The magnitude of the local tidal range is 7/13/2015 36 The magnitude of the local tidal range is influenced strongly by the local seabed bathymetry and shoreline orientation. The local behaviour of tides is controlled by dominant semi–diurnal (period 12hrs and 25 mins) and diurnal periods and with monthly variations in maximum and minimum range (spring and neap tides). Predicting the time of local high and low tides and to a lesser extent their magnitude has occurred for many centuries. It is this predictability that makes the use of tidal energy attractive.
  • 38. PRESSURE MAP:A simpler beam theory approach was used to find the appropriate span wise t/c variation. It is worth noting that the design loading case is driven by the maximum spring tide (rather than extreme events as required for wind turbines). Hydrodynamic loads (primarily in the f low direction) rather than centripetal loads dominate in the radial direction. 7/13/2015 38
