摘要：
This paper presents the numerical predictions of 3D CFD rotor computations of an 800mm diameter model of marine current turbine (MCT). In the paper CFD is applied to a rotor at stationary hydrodynamic conditions Simulations from the numerical prediction are compared with experimental measurements of the model of MCT which is experimented on in a cavitation tunnel and a towing tank. The experimental data includes measurements of power and thrust generated by the turbine, in both a cavitation tunnel and a towing tank, for a series of blade pitch settings and speeds. The numerical predictions show similar results and provide a satisfactory representation of the experimental turbine performance.
