ACRE commissioned AEA to prepare a strategic assessment of the impact on the island and its community of tidal and/or wave energy development within the Territorial Waters. This report examines the technical implications of using these technologies and the environmental and socio-economic impacts of such a development. This strategic assessment is based on an open centred, bottom mounted tidal stream generator developed by OpenHydro. Although the focus of this assessment is based on OpenHydro‟s technology other possible tidal stream and wave power technologies have been reviewed.

  • STEEL TUBE U·BENDS a Practical Way to Fabricate CARAVANS, TRAILERS, CANOPY FRAMES, GATES, GARDEN FURNITURE, EXHAUST PIPES, RACING MANIFOLDS and Many Other Items
    STEEL TUBE U·BENDS A practical way to fabricate CARAVANS, TRAILERS, CANOPY FRAMES, GATES, GARDEN FURNITURE, EXHAUST PIPES, RACING MANIFOLDS and many other items. 1 Determine tube outside diameter (O.D.)of article to be made. 2 Ascertain centre line radius of bend required. This can be done by placing a circular object over the old bend, (if any), and measuring same as in Illustration A. U Bends are supplied in centre line diameter measurements as in illustration B. i.e, 203 mm C/l Diameter U Bend. 3 Cut U Bend to required angle using straight end where possible. but always cutting to radius centre line point. as in illustration C. , A cardboard Disc cut to inside diameter with angles and , "- centre marked is very useful to determine position to cut -vi U Bend. See Illustration D. Due to slight deformation caused by bending, it may be necessary to match ends before welding. 90. ), . Compound bends may be made by using different dia­ o' 110· meter U Bends, but always cut to Radius centre line. @ o U-Bends in Packs of Five.
