"description": "The Performance Assessment of Wave and Tidal Array Systems (PerAWaT) project, launched in October 2009 with £8m of ETI investment.The project delivered validated, commercial software tools capable of significantly reducing the levels of uncertainty associated with predicting the energy yield of major wave and tidal stream energy arrays. It also produced information that will help reduce commercial risk of future large scale wave and tidal array developments.
A two-dimensional depth-averaged numerical model of the United Kingdom and Irish coasts has been constructed that includes the Anglesey and the Bristol Channel regions.The model has been developed using the discontinuous Galerkin method based ADCIRC model (DG-ADCIRC). Bathymetric data are obtained from SeaZone and the tidal forcing data are taken from the le Provost tidal database. Model results are compared to the available measurements.
Bearing in mind the scale of the region being modelled, a very good agreement is achieved between model predictions and measured data.The model presented in this report is capable of capturing the general hydrodynamic response to the main tidal forcing constituents. Several discrepancies occur between the model predictions and field data at individual observation stations.",
