Abstract

The potential of electric power generation from marine tidal currents is enormous. Tidal currents are being recognized as a resource to be exploited for the sustainable generation of electrical power. The high load factors resulting from the fluid properties and the predictable resource characteristics make marine currents particularly attractive for power generation and advantageous when compared to other renewable energies. Moreover, international treaties related to climate control have triggered resurgence in development of renewable ocean energy technology. Therefore, several demonstration projects in tidal power are scheduled to capture the tidal generated coastal currents. Regarding this emerging and promising area of research, this paper reviews marine tidal power fundamental concepts and main projects around the world. It also report issues regarding electrical generator topologies associated to tidal turbines. Moreover, attempts are made to highlight future issues so as to index some emerging technologies mainly according to relevant works that have been carried out on wind turbines and on ship propellers.

海洋潮汐发电技术:技术现状及发展趋势

利用海洋潮流发电的潜力是巨大的。潮流被认为是一种可用于可持续发电的资源。流体特性和可预测的资源特性导致的高负荷因素使洋流对发电特别有吸引力，并且与其他可再生能源相比具有优势。此外，与气候控制有关的国际条约促使可再生海洋能源技术的发展重新抬头。因此，几个潮汐发电示范项目计划捕获潮汐产生的海岸流。针对这一新兴的研究领域，本文综述了国内外海洋潮汐能的基本概念和主要研究项目。它还报告问题发电机拓扑关联到潮汐涡轮机。此外，还试图突出未来的问题，主要根据风力涡轮机和船舶螺旋桨的相关工作，对一些新兴技术进行索引。
