Rodolfo Olvera is a Senior Enterprise Fellow at the University of Southampton. He holds a Master's degree in Sustainable Energy and a PhD focused on horizontal axis tidal turbines. His research primarily explores tidal turbines and renewable energy, with particular emphasis on experiments designed to enhance turbine performance through the use of forward-facing winglets. The turbines, fully instrumented for performance measurement, are tested in a specially designed Tow Tank at the Boldrewood Campus, which opened in early 2022. His research group investigates the hydrodynamics of winglets on tidal turbine blades to optimize performance under experimental conditions.
