本方法提出使用和适应海洋环流模型作为潮汐流涡轮机（TCT）阵列布局优化的评估工具框架。通过采用现有模型的动量和湍流传递方程，提出了当前的 TCT 表示方法，将致动器盘概念扩展到 3D 大型海洋环流模型。通过实验水槽测试和网格相关性测试的再现，该方法显示了其数值相干性以及在相对较短的计算时间内准确模拟近尾流和远尾流中动量和湍流涡轮引起的扰动的能力。因此，目前的 TCT 表示方法是开发 TCT 阵列布局优化工具的非常有前景的基础。
The present method proposes the use and adaptation of ocean circulation models as an assessment tool framework for tidal current turbine (TCT) array layout optimization. By adapting both momentum and turbulence transport equations of an existing model, the present TCT representation method is proposed to extend the actuator disc concept to 3-D large-scale ocean circulation models. Through the reproduction of experimental flume tests and grid dependency tests, this method has shown its numerical coherence as well as its ability to simulate accurately both momentum and turbulent turbine-induced perturbations in both near and far wakes in a relatively short period of computation time. Consequently the present TCT representation method is a very promising basis for the development of a TCT array layout optimization tool.
