This paper studies the influence of the array arrangement of the tidal farm on the power generation, by considering different row and column spacing combinations. Based on the Delft3D-Flow module, a hydrodynamic model of the Zhaitang Island's waters is established, the site of the tidal farm is selected according to the annual average TSE index distribution, and the vertical placement is determined according to the tidal current characteristics of the Zhaitang Island's waters and the EMEC standards. And through the comparative study of 25 different arrangements, it is shown that within a certain range, the increase of the row and column spacing will reduce the total power of the array, and the changes gradually tend to be flatened.
