Dunkirk offshore wind farm - Study of current conditions in the study area

Description

The study conducted on the currents of the Dunkirk EMR study area corresponds to a characterisation of the tidal currents encountered on the sector based on new knowledge acquired through the measurement campaigns carried out in 2016. Various elements emerged from this study: - results of statistical analysis of measurements for different immersions (current roses at coefficients 45 and 95, every hour around the open sea of the reference port), - qualification of the 3D model of Pas-de-Calais tidal currents at the geographical points of the measurements (comparison table), - the product ‘tidal currents’ in the study area (digital files for 3 layers). Accessible data: - File T3_2_Statistics: Statistical analysis of measurements for different immersions (surface, mid-depth, bottom) F0542 corresponds to anchorage AWAC_1 (51°10,118’N/002°24,633’E) and F0544 to anchorage AWAC_2 (51°11,581’N/002°24,244’E) Refer to format.txt for column headings - File T3_3_Product3D_current: The product ‘Tide currents 3D – EMR Dunkerque’ comes from the digital model Pas de Calais, Baie de Somme. This model is an adaptation of the calculation code TELEMAC-3D, developed by the hydraulic laboratory of Saint-Venant, in order to simulate the propagation of the tidal wave for two tidal coefficients 45 and 95. Refer to Notice.doc for more information. - coefficient_maree file: Tide yearbook for the study period.
