Development of a bidirectional horizontal-axis tidal stream tip-connected turbine
Tidal current power generation offers predictable energy output but faces challenges such as low power density, structural requirements, and degradation due to corrosion and biofouling. In this study, a novel tip-connected turbine is proposed to address these issues. The turbine features an increased blade area to enha...
