Takao題名：Numerical Investigation on Flow Collector with Guide Vane for Tidal Energy Conversion発表情報：Journal of Physics: Conference Series 巻: 2217 号: 012071 ページ: 1-8キーワード：概要：抄録：In ocean-based renewable energies, such as wave motion, ocean current, tidal current and ocean thermal energy, many studies have been conducted on the wave energy conversion system and they have been tested in many countries. In this study, a tidal current energy is focused. Collecting a tidal flow is very important because it is generally known that a power available from a stream of water is proportional to the cube of the free stream velocity of the current. In this research, a bi-directional turbine system is investigated for a tidal flow that changes the direction periodically. Numerical investigations are conducted on a bi-directional flow collector with guide vane to collect the flow, in which the effects of vane skew angle and blade number are investigated. Calculated results showed that the collector with eight guide vanes was the highest angular moment at turbine inlet. The axial velocity at turbine inlet was larger for smaller value of the vane skew angle, whereas the tangential velocity at the turbine inlet was larger for larger value of the vane skew angle. As the results of both the profiles of axial and tangential velocity, the angular moment took the local maximum value at around the angle of 180 deg. in this study.英語フィールド
