Ashes 3.17
Released on 2021-08-30
1 Features/improvements
- Regular non-linear Stream Function wave theory added
- Craig Bampton superelement can be used to model monopiles
- Wind angle output for rotor sensor
- Extra node added for selecting location of the centre of mass for stiff blades
2 Known issues and workarounds
- Exporting and importing the floater makes mooring lines disappear. The suggested workaround is to add the mooring lines with the 'Configure moorings' action button
- Pausing a simulation while using a Python script in automatic mode will stop the simulation and potentially crash.
- Closing the 'Waiting' window when selecting a Python script in manual mode can crash the software.
- The velocity triangle shows an airfoil that is rotated 90 degrees wrt what it should be. This has been fixed in Ashes 3.18
3 Bugs fixed
- Blades in blade database were showing a pre-curve angle even when no pre-curve abgle was defined
- Batch manager and eigenfrequency solver was very unstable when using a model with the ROSCO controller
- Crash when selecting turbulent wind from file on a tubular tower only
- RNAs for IEA 15-MW and DTU 10-MW were not correct
- The phase of the MacCamy-Fuchs implementation was not correct
- Repeat duration for irregular waves was not correct. Removed
- Choosing empty DLL path causes whole program folder to be imported
