Ashes 3.14
Released on 2020-06-11
1 Features/Improvements
- Possibility to connect Ashes to Python for developping/debugging control systems
- RNA database added for easier handlling of RNAs
- Possibility to study single blades added
- New wind type 'linear' added
- New parameters for polar generation added
- Improvements in number formatting
- More information added to the info panes
- Von Karman model added to turbulent wind creator
- FE algorithm now uses only absolute convergence
2 Known bugs and workarounds
- Turbulent wind generation does not work for multirotor. The suggested workaround is to generate a turbulent wind based on the template models and define the size of the field according to the multirotor model
- Rayleigh damping does not work for some models. The suggested workaround is to use mass-proportional damping
- Exporting and importing the floater makes mooring lines disappear. The suggested workaround is to add the mooring lines with the 'Configure moorings' action button
3 Bugs fixed
- Some minor bugs in the Xfoil wrapper have been fixed
- Some sensors would display inifite values when RPM and wind were zero
- Turbulent wind creator was not taking into account tidal elevation
- There was a crash when investigating circular airfoils
- There was a crash when opening a blade which arifoils were deleted
