HAWT Properties

This tab is available only for analyses that belong to the Default Analysis Set.

It allows the user to define specific HAWT properties for the current analysis.

The HAWT properties tab includes the following items:

  • Hawt: Used to select the HAWT. Each cell in this column contains a drop-down list filled in with the names of all HAWTs components available in the analysis.
  • Start up: Reference to a displacement loading of Control sub displacement kind and Turbine startup sub type. This is an optional parameter.
  • Start up var table: Reference to a 3 columns variation table, this parameter supersedes the above Start Up parameter. This is an optional parameter.

  • Yaw: Reference to a displacement loading of Control sub displacement kind and Z Rotation sub type. This is an optional parameter.

  • Yaw var table: Reference to a 2 columns variation table, this parameter supersedes the above Yaw parameter. This is an optional parameter.

  • Control mode: Reference to a control mode type. This is an optional parameter.

  • Control options: Reference to a control dll option type. This is an optional parameter.

  • Aerodynamic solver options: Reference to an Aero solver option type. This is an optional parameter.

For the Control mode , Control options and Aerodynamic solver options parameters, a Default choice is available and allows to use the data defined in the HAWT itself.
