Resource Abstract:
- description: Field measurements of mean flow and turbulence parameters at the Kvichak river prior to and after the deployment
of ORPC's RivGen hydrokinetic turbine. Data description and turbine wake analysis are presented in the attached manuscript
"Wake measurements from a hydrokinetic river turbine" by Guerra and Thomson (recently submitted to Renewable Energy).
There are three data sets: NoTurbine (prior to deployment), Not_Operational_Turbine (turbine underwater, but not operational),
and Operational_Turbine. The data has been quality controlled and organized into a three-dimensional grid using a local coordinate
system described in the paper. All data sets are in Matlab format (.mat). Variables available in the data sets are: qx: X
coordinate matrix (m) qy: Y coordinate matrix (m) z : z coordinate vector (m) lat : grid cell latitude (degrees) lon: grid
cell longitude (degrees) U : velocity magnitude (m/s) Ux: x velocity (m/s) Vy: y velocity (m/s) W: vertical velocity (m/s)
Pseudo_beam.b_i: pseudo-along beam velocities (i = 1 to 4) (m/s) (structure with raw data within each grid cell) beam5.b5:
5th-beam velocity (m/s) (structure with raw data within each grid cell) tke: turbulent kinetic energy (m2/s2) epsilon: TKE
dissipation rate (m2/s3) Reynolds stresses: uu, vv, ww, uw, vw (m2/s2) Variables from the Not Operational Turbine data set
are identified with _T Variables from the Operational Turbine data set are identified with _TO; abstract: Field measurements
