Tidal Lagoon Swansea Bay introduction
Вставка

- Tidal lagoons are a simple concept involving the adaptation of standard, proven components used in global engineering projects. The Swansea Bay lagoon will comprise a UK standard sand-core breakwater or rock bund, similar to many seen in coastal defence schemes and harbour walls. The generating equipment of bulb hydro turbines have been used for many years on run-of-river hydro power schemes as well as some landmark tidal barrages. The hydro turbines are mounted inside concrete turbine housings and are permanently submerged so the resulting view is of a ring-shaped harbour wall with one section of concrete casing.
As the sea outside the breakwater rises and is held back a difference in water levels is created, known as ‘head’, and once a sufficient head height is reached sluice gates are opened and water flows into the lagoon through turbines to generate electricity. This process then occurs in reverse, on the ebb tide, as sea levels start to fall and a tidal head is created by holding water back within the lagoon. This way the tides can flow through our turbines four times daily to generate power.

If people are still worried about fish....
the dragon's gonna scare them off, trust me.
Sir i am amazed by the high definition clips of animation in your video. Can you tell me what kind of software did you used? I am interested with animation of these kind. Thanks for replying. -Engr. Banjo
noice! i'm all for it. too bad this doesn't have that much views.
This Dragon is merely sleeping but needs waking asap.
This project looks efficient and an excelent option to create social, techonological and natural relationship, I'm amazed with visions of future like this one, where the engineering seems like a siombiosis, even when every thing we create does affect the natural enviroment.
This is a great video, which I use for educational purposes but the sound quality is dreadful and very strange - the commentator is fine is just how the sound has been added to the video it. It sounds like it is fading out and in and barely audible at times and the speech seems clipped and difficult to hear.
Very good power generation and if used as stated for marine farming and protection...win win
How would they ensure that there aren't unintended effects, like the stagnant sea water at Dubai's Palm Island?
tidal barrages "flush" it out.
They don't conservate the water inside the turbine tunnels. These places work using the natural flow of tides, so the water is always going in and going out the installations.
This deserves more views!!
Fan go brrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr
and now its not happening for at least another decade. maybe 2. if at all...
Why was this project rejected by the Conservatives? We have a energy crisis and look at us now. The Welsh are always shown the back door time for independence.
we still waiting what the fuck

It's bull shit 😊
