- Abstract
- Leading Edge is a group of scientists, engineers, ecologists, and entrepreneurs
who are working to capture the energy from the leading edge of a hydrofoil and determine the
viability of bringing clean hydrokinetic energy to mass market. Similar to a turbine blade
which is deflected as it redirects the water flow, thereby driving a generator, a hydrofoil is
also deflected when it is at different angles of attack. Using a pitching and heaving motion,
two offset hydrofoils will move out of phase of each other and harness energy from the tide or
current of free waterways.
