针对竖轴潮流能水轮机的水动力性能,在拖曳水池中开展模型试验研究。在若干给定的转速和流速情况下考察水轮机能效指数。改变水轮机模型的结构形式及其工作环境,分析尖速比、叶片偏角以及密实度对能效指数的影响。研究竖轴潮流能水轮机在波流耦合作用下的水动力响应,分析波浪对水轮机能效指数的影响。期望试验结果可为相关研究人员提供技术支持。
Based on model experiments in the towing tank in Zhejiang Ocean University, hydrodynamic performance of vertical-axis tidal-current turbine is investigated. Energy efficiency index of the turbine is discussed under different conditions of rotating speeds and flow velocities. Influence of tip-speed ratio, preset angle of airfoil attack and solidity of turbine on the energy efficiency index is analyzed. Effect of waves on the energy efficiency index is investigated. Experimental results may provide technical support for relevant researches.
