Over het archief
Het OWA, het open archief van het Waterbouwkundig Laboratorium heeft tot doel alle vrij toegankelijke onderzoeksresultaten van dit instituut in digitale vorm aan te bieden. Op die manier wil het de zichtbaarheid, verspreiding en gebruik van deze onderzoeksresultaten, alsook de wetenschappelijke communicatie maximaal bevorderen.
Dit archief wordt uitgebouwd en beheerd volgens de principes van de Open Access Movement, en het daaruit ontstane Open Archives Initiative.

| Abstract |
In this work, BlueTEC, a tidal energy floating platform deployed in the Marsdiep inlet, is introduced. The patterns of circulationof the Marsdiep inlet and an energy resource assessment followed by the respective site selection for the platform’sdeployment are reported. This manuscript analyses different datasets sampled during the project, including current speeds,wave parameters, turbine power output, platform excursions, and other environmental parameters such as temperature andsalinity. Most of the datasets were measured by instruments installed on the platform, with the exception of the wave data,which was sampled by a nearby oceanographic mooring, and except the environmental parameters, which were estimatedvia satellite and numerical modelling. The effect of the turbine on the water velocity and preliminary results on the poweroutput are discussed. Finally, discussions on the marine growth, potential environmental impacts and future perspectivesare also addressed. |
