===About this project===
  +
====Goal of the project====
  +
Performing of a test program on the Playing with Current test-installation in the PSD building, to assess the flexibility of the pump/turbine in several operation modes using a fast switching Louvre valve and a fast frequency control drive.
  +
====Link with theme's Energy, Water and Vitality====
  +
Generation and storage of renewable electricity with a tidal power plant which can very quickly produce or absorb electricity.
  +
====Professorships and/or organizations involved====
  +
Lectorate Delta Power and all the parties involved in the Raak-Pro Project “Playing with Currents”.
  +
====Role and ambition of stakeholders involved====
  +
Development of low-head fast switching tidal turbines which can be applied in the future Brouwersdam tidal power plant. Perhaps the stakeholders come up with other prototypes which can be tested in the “Playing with Currents” test installation.

===What's in it for me?===
  +
====Activities and design of the minor project====
  +
Performing of tests, analyzing of results, and giving recommendations for the design of a faster and more flexible tidal turbine.

====Results to be developed====
  +
Test results and analysis, and recommendation for a better design of tidal turbines. Assessment and minimization of losses due to friction and turbulence, and wear of components.
