*AEROLOAD
Data format:
One line with five parameters
IMO ICOR THRESH RATIO IOUT
Status :
Optional
Restriction :
For dynamic analysis with wind turbines
Purpose :
To modify the aerodynamic loads on the blades computes by the aerodynamic solver
Details :
Parameter | Description |
---|---|
MO | By default, both aerodynamic force and moment are applied on the blades: IMO = 0 : default IMO = 1 : Only the force is applied, the moment is not transferred to the blade |
ICOR | By default, the aerodynamic forces and moments computed at the beginning of the timestep are applied at the blade: ICOR = 0 : default ICOR = 1 : if the absolute value of the force or moment is above the threshold value THRESH and the relative variation of the force or moment between t-dt and t (actual time) is greater than RATIO, then the force or moment et t-dt is applied at t (instead of the computed force at t) |
THRESH | Value of the threshold |
RATIO | Value of the ratio |
IOUT | IOUT=0: No extra output (default value) IOUT=1 : a file raero00i.txt is created with global aerodynamic forces and moments on the turbine in global and hub frame |
