DEPRECATED

THIS REPOSITORY IS DEPRECATED AND WILL BE ARCHIVED (READ-ONLY) IN NOVEMBER 2019.

WISDEM has moved to a single, integrated repository at https://github.com/wisdem/wisdem

RotorSE

RotorSE is a Systems engineering model for wind turbines rotors implemented as an OpenMDAO assembly.

Author: NREL WISDEM Team

Documentation

See local documentation in the docs-directory or access the online version at http://wisdem.github.io/RotorSE/

Prerequisites

RotorSE requires C++ and Fortran compilers

Installation

For detailed installation instructions of WISDEM modules see https://github.com/WISDEM/WISDEM or to install RotorSE by itself do:

$ python setup.py install

Run Unit Tests

To check if installation was successful try to import the package:

$ python
> import rotorse.rotor

You may also run the example

$ python src/rotorse/rotor.py

For software issues please use https://github.com/WISDEM/RotorSE/issues. For functionality and theory related questions and comments please use the NWTC forum for Systems Engineering Software Questions.

Plotting Power coefficient & Induction Factors along Blade length

Hello,
How can I plot Cp (Power coefficient) and Induction Factors along the blade length using RotorSE?
Any Suggestions? I am having trouble relating these values along the blade, which I believe are obtained from CCBlade module. I want to further see the flap and edge frequencies variations as we move from root to tip.

Can you suggest few steps that I should follow?
Thank you.

AttributeError in rotoraerodefaults.py

Hi,
I have installed RotorSE on OpenMDAO 0.10.2. When I run the optimization example in rotoraerodefaults.py I get the AttributeError below.

Any idea where the problem might be?

Regards,
Malo

make the inclusion of weight in the rotor loads calculaton an option (some codes already handle ths)

PreComp crashes with 4th shear web

I've been trying to perform RotorSE analysis on the DTU 10MW, which has 3 shear webs and an flat trailing edge, i.e. 4 shear webs for PreComp. PreComp was crashing at the first span location with all 4 webs during the 'seg_info' subroutine. In PreCompPy.f90, the dimension for several variables were set to "n_af_nodes+20", which is one too small in the case of 4 webs. Increasing this and recompiling resolved the issue.

Import RotorSE Error

Trying to run WISDEM in Linux Ubuntu. I am getting this error, although have no issues in installation.
python
import rotorse.rotor
Gives:
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
File "/home/anurag/Documents/openmdao-0.10.3.2/WISDEM/plugins/RotorSE/src/rotorse/rotor.py", line 17, in <module>

Along with:

`from rotoraerodefaults import CCBladeGeometry, CCBlade, CSMDrivetrain, RayleighCDF, WeibullWithMeanCDF`

File "/home/anurag/Documents/openmdao-0.10.3.2/WISDEM/plugins/RotorSE/src/rotorse/rotoraerodefaults.py", line 15, in <module>
from ccblade import CCAirfoil, CCBlade as CCBlade_PY ImportError: cannot import name CCBlade

What could be wrong, can you suggest?

environment move to fused wind from rotorse and commonse

environment in 3 places - commonse, plant_energyse and rotorse - need to move to fusedwind and update all three to use fused wind content
