Tidal current energy is looked upon worldwide as a largely untapped, potentially significant and reliable source of energy. Countries, such as the United Kingdom and Canada, are working towards the implantation of tidal turbine farms in order to exploit this promising form of renewable energy. One of the barriers to further developing tidal energy extraction is the difficulty of accurately assessing the extractable energy or realisable tidal current output of a given site. Various numerical models for site assessments currently exist. Three of them, the Kinetic Energy Flux and two models, named GC05 and V10, which take into account the effect on the flow of the introduction of turbines are described, discussed and used throughout this work....
