Assembly

https://bladednextgen.dnv.com/schema/0.4.1/Turbine/Assembly/Assembly.json

The Assembly is a tree structure defining the connectivity of the turbine components.

Each node in the tree is defined as an object with a custom name, and a reference to the relevant component in the ComponentDefinitions.

Each node can have 0 or more connected 'child' nodes, defined as object properties inside it.

The Assembly tree must start with a single node at the root.

• <custom-name>: object (AssemblyNode)

e.g

"Hub": {
   "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/independent_pitch_hub",
   "PitchSystem1": {
      "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/pitch_system",
      "Blade": {
         "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/blade"
      }
   },
   "PitchSystem2": {
      "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/pitch_system",
      "Blade": {
         "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/blade"
      }
   },
   "PitchSystem3": {
      "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/pitch_system",
      "Blade": {
         "ComponentReference": "#/ComponentDefinitions/blade"
      }
   }
}

Properties

0..n <custom-name>: object(AssemblyNode), optional

The Assembly is a tree structure defining the connectivity of the turbine components. Each node in the tree is defined as an object with a custom name, and a reference to the relevant component in the ComponentDefinitions.
