Parametric Model Power Profiles Error Estimation This section gives an overview of the method employed in the generation of the power profiles for the sites as well as assumptions used and the possible errors. The turbine parametric model used has also been included. Parametric Model The 1 MW design described in the Commercial Prospects of Tidal Stream document prepared by Binnie Black and Veatch in association with IT Power was adopted for this study. The concept is a twin rotor (2 x 500 kW) axial flow turbine mounted on a monopile founded in the seabed as shown below. Key features:
Power Profiles The sequence of steps involved in the generation of the power profiles is as below:
