Abstract:

A probabilistic model of the maximum of tidal current velocity fluctuations is proposed.

Reliability analysis of rotor blades of a tidal stream turbine is described.

Influence of pitch control system on the blade reliability is investigated.

Partial safety factors for the design of tidal turbine rotor blades are calibrated.
