Dear all,
I am currently trying to simulate NREL 5MW Reference Turbine on FAST v7. I’ve used the input files which compose the NREL’s Technical Report (nrel.gov/docs/fy09osti/38060.pdf) and I am getting the following error:
" Invalid logical input for file NREL_5MW.fst.
The error occurred while trying to read Echo "
Can someone please help me ? I’ve really verified all my input files and they seem correct to me.
Best Regards,
Eduardo Menezes
Dear Eduardo,
It sounds like there is a problem with the format of your FAST v7 input file. That said, a complete FAST v7-compatible model of the NREL 5-MW turbine is available at: wind.nrel.gov/public/jjonkman/NR … nshore.zip.
Best regards,
Dear Jason,
I am really grateful for your quick response.
Congratulations for your work and for maintaining this so important forum.
