Abstract
Based on the analysis method of CFD-Fluent, and designed the different sinks with five widths and three depths, the variation influence on the performance of the runner of energy conversion was explored by the changing size of the sink, and the brief analysis was given based on the theory of finite wing span and infinite wing span, and the results of numerical simulation were compared with the model test results. This research can be used to the reference for the model test and the conversion of prototype-model of horizontal tidal Current turbine.
