Modeling and Simulation of Tidal Energy

Abstract

The potential for generating electricity from tidal currents are massive it is a resource that is exploited for sustainable generation of electricity. High load operator creating from fluid characteristics and expectable resource properties making marine currents, especially, attractive for power obstetrics and useful matched to the other renewable energies. Furthermore, international conventions concerning climate controlled to the re-emergence of renewable energy technology in the oceans. As a result, many demonstration schemas in tidal energy are designed to capture the tidal produced littoral currents. Study reviews the basic concepts of tidal power and reports on issues related to the topology of generators associated with tidal turbines. It is also making attempts to highlight future issues in order to catalog some of the emerging technologies fundamentally awarding to pertinent work that has been carry on wind turbines and on the ship fans. The study treats with the evolution model of MATLAB-Simulink to simulate current tidal turbines. Purpose of simulation model is to assess the potential for current tidal power generation.
