PerformanceCoefficientsCalculation

https://bladednextgen.dnv.com/schema/0.4.1/SteadyCalculation/PerformanceCoefficientsCalculation.json

Defines a calculation which produces power, torque and thrust coefficients are calculated in a uniform steady wind field. The rotor is modelled with flexibility as well as prebend and sweep. However, the rotor is analysed in isolation without any influence from the rest of the turbine structure.

A type of SteadyCalculation

Properties

SteadyCalculationType: string

Defines the specific type of SteadyCalculation model in use. For a PerformanceCoefficients object, this must always be set to a value of PerformanceCoefficients.

TipSpeedRatioRange: object(DimensionlessRange)

The range of tip speed ratios to consider.

PitchRange: object(AngleRange)

The range of pitch angles to consider.

RotorSpeed: number (rad/s)

The rotor speed to be considered for the calculation.

Outputs: object(SteadyCalculationOutputs)
