Operating SCHOTTEL Turbine in Real Tidal Currents
Marine Renewables Infrastructure Network Infrastructure Access Report Infrastructure: QUB Portaferry Tidal Test Centre User-Project: OSTReTiC Operating SCHOTTEL Turbine in Real Tidal Currents SCHOTTEL – Josef Becker Forschungszentrum GmbH Status: Final Version: <<01>> Date: 26-Nov-2014 EC FP7 “Capacities” Specific Programme Research Infrastructure Action Infrastructure Access Report: OSTReTiC ABOUT MARINET MARINET (Marine Renewables Infrastructure Network for emerging Energy Technologies) is an EC-funded network of research centres and organisations that are working together to accelerate the development of marine renewable energy - wave, tidal & offshore-wind. The initiative is funded through the EC's Seventh Framework Programme (FP7) and runs for four years until 2015. The network of 29 partners with 42 specialist marine research facilities is spread across 11 EU countries and 1 International Cooperation Partner Country (Brazil). MARINET offers periods of free-of-charge access to test facilities at a range of world-class research centres. Companies and research groups can avail of this Transnational Access (TA) to test devices at any scale in areas such as wave energy, tidal energy, offshore-wind energy and environmental data or to conduct tests on cross-cutting areas such as power take-off systems, grid integration, materials or moorings. In total, over 700 weeks of access is available to an estimated 300 projects and 800 external users, with at least four calls for access applications over the 4-year initiative. MARINET partners are also working to implement common standards for testing in order to streamline the development process, conducting research to improve testing capabilities across the network, providing training at various facilities in the network in order to enhance personnel expertise and organising industry networking events in order to facilitate partnerships and knowledge exchange. -

LIUTO (Low Impact Urban Transport water Omnibus) is the name of t he project, whose goal is to develop the prototype of Venice’s 2000 M/b fleet with the following main aims and innovative features: • achieve low hydrodynamic impact by wave and propeller washing generated in the navigation and the frequent manoeuvring, by m eans of an optimised hull and an innovative propeller designs; • qualify and compare results with existing vessels by validated CFD numerical tools, model and full scale tests; • test and apply composite materials, resisting heavy duty services, vandalism and environmental conditions, for the hull construction and the superstructure, to reduce maintenance costs and help achieving stability. ACTV is responsible for co -ordinating the project and defining, as prime interested end user, the specification of the mot or boat. -
Thrust Estimation and Control of Marine Propellers in Four- Quadrant Operations
Luca Pivano Thrust Estimation and Control of Marine Propellers in Four- Quadrant Operations Thesis for the degree of philosophiae doctor Trondheim, April 2008 Norwegian University of Science and Technology Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics, and Electrical Engineering Department of Engineering Cybernetics NTNU Norwegian University of Science and Technology Thesis for the degree of philosophiae doctor Faculty of Information Technology, Mathematics, and Electrical Engineering Department of Engineering Cybernetics ©Luca Pivano ISBN 978-82-471-6258-3 (printed ver.) ISBN 978-82-471-6261-3 (electronic ver.) ISSN 1503-8181 ITK report 2008:3-W Theses at NTNU, 2008:20 Printed by Tapir Uttrykk Summary Speed and position control systems for marine vehicles have been subject to an increased focus with respect to performance and safety. An example is represented by drilling operations performed with semi submersible rigs where the control of position and heading requires high accuracy. Drift- ing from the well position could cause severe damage to equipment and environment. Also, the use of underwater vehicles for deep ocean survey, exploration, bathymetric mapping and reconnaissance missions, has be- come lately more widespread. The employment of such vehicles in complex missions requires high precision and maneuverability. This thesis focuses on thrust estimation and control of marine pro- pellers with particular attention to four-quadrant operations, in which the propeller shaft speed and the propeller in‡ow velocity (advance speed) as- sume values in the whole plane. In the overall control system, propellers play a fundamental role since they are the main force producing devices. The primary objective of the thruster controller is to obtain the desired thrust from the propeller regardless the environmental state. -
