AeroDyn is an aerodynamics software library for use by designers of
horizontal-axis wind turbines. It is written to be interfaced with
structural-dynamics simulators (
MSC.ADAMS®, FAST, YawDyn, and SymDyn).
|
| FAST |
(v6.01, 12-August-2005; using AeroDyn v12.58) |
| |
FAST is a medium-complexity code for nonlinear aero-servo-elastic analysis
of horizontal-axis wind turbines. It can also extract linear
state-space models for controls design and can be used to to generate
MSC.ADAMS® models.
|
| |
NAFNoise is a code for determing 2-D airfoil noise using a variety of
methods.
|
| |
PROPID (PROP Inverse Design) is aerodynamic design software developed by the
University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. You can use it to design rotors. Use
this link to visit their site.
|
| |
RPM-Sim is an application-specific study of the system dynamics of
renewable-energy hybrid (wind-diesel-PV-load etc.) power-systems.
|
| |
The functionality for extracting state-space matrices and performing
simulation studies for controls design using the aeroelastic SymDyn code
has been replaced by functionality in
FAST. Please refer to the
FAST User's Guide to
learn how to use it.

TurbSim is a is a stochastic, full-field, turbulent-wind simulator.
It is a descendant of SNLWIND-3D and SNwind with many new features.
|
| |
WT_Perf estimates wind-turbine performance.
|
| YawDyn |
(v12.16, 18-February-2005; using AeroDyn v12.57) |
| |
YawDyn is a simple code for aerodynamic and dynamic analysis of constant rpm
rotors with two or more blades and a teetering or rigid hub.
