hello,
I’m working on the volturn US 15 MW wind turbine.
I want to get the following outputs from hydrodyn:
“Wave1Elev”
“HydroFxi”
“AddFxi”
“HdrStcFxi”
“HdrStcFyi”
“HdrStcFzi”
“HdrStcMxi”
“HdrStcMyi”
“HdrStcMzi”
“RdtnFxi”
“RdtnFyi”
“RdtnFzi”
“RdtnMxi”
“RdtnMyi”
“RdtnMzi”
but only the first two outputs are correctly measured.
what am I missing? the hydrodyn file is this:
