摘要：In this paper,a numerical code for predicting the hydrodynamic performance of vertical-axis tidal turbine array is developed.The effect of the tip speed ratio,solidity,and preset angle on the hydrodynamic performance are discussed using a series of calculations.The load principle of the rotor and the variation principle of the turbine power coefficient are studied.All these results can be considered as a reference for the design of vertical-axis tidal turbines.
