The optimum position for a tidal power barrage in the Severn estuary

G. I. Taylor's approximate analytical solution for the tidal flow in the Severn estuary is extended to find the optimum location for a tidal power barrage, from the power point of view. It appears to be at the lowest point in the estuary, between Ilfracombe and Gower – contrary to earlier compu...
