Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2011/141074
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
The invention relates to a tidal power plant, comprising a water turbine having torsionally rigid rotor blades, a drive train connected to the water turbine that drives an electric generator at least indirectly. Said invention is characterized in that at incident-flow velocities v for which the tidal power plant is designed, the water turbine is not self-starting for tip speed ratios λ below a predetermined self-starting tip speed ratio λs with λs ≥ 1.
