2 Context Various global studies have shown that marine currents have a large potential as a predictable sustainable resource for commercial scale generation of electrical power. There are many areas of the world in which extreme tidal currents are observed. The Celtic sea being the most dense in terms of renewable energy potential. (Tidal energy and offshore wind) In the region of the Cherbourg peninsula in France : The most attractive tidal site in France is the sea passage known as Le Raz Blanchard in French and the Race of Alderney in English. The water depth allows for the marine turbine systems to exceed 20 meters diameter without causing any perturbation to maritime traffic and the current velocity peaks above 3m/s. In order to present some realistic numerical results, the present study is using these data as input. 2

10 Panel method The panel methods are based on the potential flow theory. We assume that the fluid is inviscid and non rotational ( ). The above assumption is equivalent to To mimic the behavior of viscous fluid flow around a lifting body we force the flow to be lined up with the trailing edge (Kutta-Joukowski condition). Concerning the mesh, the panel method only requires a surface mesh of the solid objects. Example of ducted marine current turbine mesh 7

23 Conclusion and future perspectives A design method involving BEM and Panel method code was developed and used to obtain the geometry of an horizontal axis marine current turbine for the Race of Alderney. A bare turbine was designed which can attain up to 90% of the Betz limit. The addition of an accelerating duct at the same overall diameter with bare turbine was investigated. It was found that, to obtain a sufficient acceleration capable to compensate the loss of blade diameter, the section has to be seriously cambered when there is no flaring of the duct profile at the exit. The effect of the flaring of the duct exit is currently being studied. The obtained ducted water turbine has a potential power output of 2.35MW, 5% more than the bare turbine with the same overall diameter. The device is designed for uni-directional flow. Adding a duct will not only increase the total weight but also the manufacturing cost. In this study only the hydrodynamics aspects have been taken into account. Our future line of investigation will concern the composite materials and the structural behavior of the ducted water turbine. Materials and layup optimization. 15
