UPDATE, DECEMBER 3, 2013: It is not possible to run Bladed with turbulent wind in the Swanson Lab. But it is possible to run the turbulent wind cases in the public computer facilities in 318 Phillips, B7 Upson and ACCEL (Carpenter Hall). |
Turbulent Wind
The demo wind turbine uses a turbulent wind for analysis. This tutorial will show the users how to generate a user defined turbulent wind file, which can be used to replace the default turbulent wind.
...
To replace the default wind file with the user-defined wind file, click on the Time varying wind tab. Use the browse button to locate the file you have generated and replace the default wind file (demo_a.wnd).
Click on OK to finish.

The workstations in the Swanson lab can not generate valid turbulent wind files. This creates an error when the user tries to replace the default wind file. It also turns out the simulations can not be performed using the default wind file either. Turbulence wind files with various conditions will be provided to you to complete your Wind Power course project. Make sure you download and extract the files in the appropriate working directory.
