Turbine

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

The definition of the turbine and its installation that is to be modelled.

  • ElectricalGrid: object (ElectricalGrid)
  • TurbineOperationalParameters: object (TurbineOperationalParameters)
  • Control: object (BladedControl)
  • GlobalExternalModules: array[object (ExternalModule)]
  • MeanSeaLevel: number (m)
  • Assembly: object (Assembly)

Properties

ElectricalGrid: object(ElectricalGrid), optionalcoming soon

The properties of the electrical grid that the turbine is connected to.

TurbineOperationalParameters: object(TurbineOperationalParameters)

The general operational parameters for the turbine. These are used to calculate equilibrium or steady state conditions to find the initial conditions for a time domain calculation, or for steady calculations such as the Steady Operational Loads calculation.

Control: object(BladedControl), optionalcoming soon

The definition of how the turbine is controlled.

GlobalExternalModules: array[ object (ExternalModule) ], optionalcoming soon

A list of any external modules that will be run with the time domain simulations. It is expected that external modules defined here will interact with more than one area of the turbine, such as to apply additional aerodynamics loads to the entire structure. Any external modules that represent a single component should be added to the Assembly tree.

MeanSeaLevel: number (m), optional

The mean sea depth at the turbine location. If omited, the Turbine will be considered an on-shore turbine and any sea states will be ignored.

default = 0.0

Assembly: object(Assembly)

The definition of the turbine assembly, starting at the bottom of the tree, and specifying which components are attached to which others.
