Resource and Site Selection Describe and explain how you wouldselect a site for one (i) a small commercial tidal stream farm,(ii) a small commercial wave farm or (iii) an offshore wind farm.Answers should cover from the first theoretical prospecting for asuitable region, through to a description of survey and measurementmethods and analysis. (Answers should be less than 1000 wordsexcluding illustrations and references. Copied and pastedillustrations may be used, but must be clearly identified andreferenced).
FURTHER DATA / INFORMATION REQUIRED • Density of fresh water pw = 1000kgm-³ Density of sea water psw=1025kgm-³ Density of air pa = 1.29 kgm-³ • For a deep water wave,= • For an irregular wave spectrum of sea states, the Power per unit of crest length is given by: gr 2π P' (Wm-¹) = Pg² H²T. +1 2 32π or approximately P' (kW/m) = 0.5 H² T Gravitational constant g = 9.81ms-² The specific heat capacity of water, c = 4.2kJ/kg°C The energy, Q (J) required to heat a substance of mass, m (kg) and specific heat capacity, c (J/kg°C) by a temperature At is given by 'Q = mc^t'
