Model Test of the Water Current Catamaran Turbine and Their Stability

The aims of this work is to investigate the performance and stability of the water current Catamaran Turbine Prototype. There are three aspects to be considered in designing process hydrostatic, stability, and performance of floating hydroenergy generator to generate power. CFD analysis conducted to investigate the flow around Catamaran and rotating turbine. The flow stream around Catamaran has oscillated moment and force and these could affect the stability. The model of buoyancy device was produced and tested in water flume. The test result shows that buoyancy device has good stability, it may be seen from the ability of the buoyant to keep its position when there is a disturbance on stability.
