The hydrokinetic industry has advanced beyond its initial testing phase with full-scale
projects being introduced, constructed and tested globally. However primary hurdles such …

In the quest for renewable energy sources, kinetic energy available in small water streams,
river streams or human-made canals may provide new avenue which can be harnessed by …

Savonius hydrokinetic turbine is one of the prominent vertical axis turbines for tapping hydro
potential available in flowing streams in rivers or canals. In spite of their simple design …

Tidal stream turbine arrays will be subject to a range of flow conditions throughout the tidal
cycle and it is important for developers to have an understanding of the impact of these on …

Hydrokinetic power as a clean renewable energy has been aroused a widespread concern.
Horizontal axis turbines are widely used in the field of tidal and river current energy power …

A small-scale horizontal axis hydrokinetic turbine is designed, manufactured and studied
both experimentally and numerically in this study. The turbine is expected to work in most of …

Savonius hydrokinetic turbine is considered as an environmentally friendly and cost effective
turbine to extract hydrokinetic potential available in flowing streams. However, this turbine …

A cross-flow HKT can be deployed in rivers and canals having a shallow depth of water to
harness the kinetic energy from free stream water. Few studies have been carried out on the …

Large-eddy simulation is utilized to reproduce the instability of the tip vortices shed from the
blades of an axial-flow turbine. The oscillations of their helical trajectories trigger mutual …

Ocean current turbines (OCT) convert the kinetic energy housed within the earth's ocean
currents into electricity. However, OCT technologies used to harvest this energy are still at …
