Hello Jason,
I am trying to simulate the Design Load Cases (DLC) for the IEA-15MW reference wind turbine. I have generated the wind files (.wnd) to simulate the required inflow conditions using the IECWind module. I am passing these files to the turbine model as a uniform wind file, WindType = 2 in Inflowfile. I initially got the “Mach number exceeds 1.0. The theory is invalid.” error, following which I have changed the parameters AFAeroMod and SkewMod to 1. Now I am getting the following error:
Is this the right approach to analyse various DLCs? What do you think might be causing this error?
Thanking you,
Shubham
