Raz Blanchard ADCP Processed Data

This dataset supports the Energies journal paper "Evaluation of Model Predictions of the Unsteady Tidal Stream Resource and Turbine Fatigue Loads Relative to Multi-Point Flow Measurements at Raz Blanchard" and comprises of six files. Each file corresponds to an ADCP location, NH1, MU and NH2 and a vertical position of a turbine, near surface (hub at 15 m below the surface) or near bed (hub 15 m above the bed). With the hub height above the bed given as Zhub in metres above bed, the disk averaged velocity and disk averaged turbulence intensity is provided for a turbine with a diameter of 18 m. The vertical shear profile is also provided through a series of vertical positions with 3 m spacing. The velocities have been provided as absolute values with the mean measured direction for each sample.

本数据集支撑《能源（Energies）》期刊论文《拉布朗夏尔（Raz Blanchard）海域多测点流场测量下非定常潮汐流资源与轮机疲劳载荷的模型预测效果评估》，共包含6个数据文件。每个文件对应一个声学多普勒流速剖面仪（Acoustic Doppler Current Profiler, ADCP）站位（NH1、MU与NH2），以及轮机的两类垂向安装位置：近表层（轮机轮毂距海面15米）与近床层（轮机轮毂距床面15米）。以Zhub表示轮机轮毂距床面的高度（单位：米），本数据集提供了直径为18米的轮机的圆盘平均流速与圆盘平均湍流强度。同时，数据集还提供了间隔3m的一系列垂向测点对应的垂向剪切剖面。所有流速均以各采样点的实测平均流向为基准，以绝对值形式给出。
