Hi,
I’m trying to build a Bladed model of the IEA 15MW turbine, and as part of this I need to get a working DISCON.dll. I’ve succesfully compiled the controller, but it won’t run in Bladed. I figured I’d try and make sure it works for OpenFAST first so that I can be sure I don’t have a broken controler, and when I try to run I get the following output:

Does anyone have any idea what might be going on here? I haven’t changed the source code of ROSCO.
I figured it out - the DISCON.IN file has different entries to the one provided with ROSCO. If you use the files for the IEA 15MW turbine provided with ROSCO then everything works once you change the path in DISCON.IN to the location of the PerfFileName.
Hi,
I have posted about this issue, on ROSCO Github (github.com/NREL/ROSCO/issues/31), using ROSCO DLL with openfast for the IEA 15MW semisubmersible case in the restart mode. As I haven’t yet received any resolution to this issue so I am posting it here again hoping for some help or hints to fix it.
I am trying to use ROSCO DLL for the IEA 15MW semisubmersible case with openfast (both v2.3.0 and v2.4.0) with the restart option after the checkpoint file is generated in the first run. I found openfast is aborting due to some segmentation fault arising in ROSCO code (see below). Any help to fix this issue is appreciated.

Hi All,
@Peter.Greaves - I am glad you were able to get those issues resolved. Out of curiosity - was the DISCON.IN file provided via the IEA 15MW github repository the one causing problems?
github.com/IEAWindTask37/IEA-15 … onopile.IN
@Srinivasa.Ramisetti - I have posted the following response to your question on the github issue that you opened (github.com/NREL/ROSCO/issues/31). Thanks for posting on the github page - we would like to encourage all ROSCO-specific questions to be posed via github issues.
Unfortunately, we do not have any restart capabilities included in ROSCO right now. I’m going to leave this github issue open until it is resolved. As it is now, we don’t have any specific plans to include this feature, but will certainly add it to the docket as “nice to have” items as we continue our development.
Of course, if this is a capability that you feel qualified to contribute, we would encourage that!
Thanks,
Nikhar
Hello Peter,
I recently ran into the same problem when attempting to run a Bladed model of the 15MW turbine. I was wondering if you could explain your solution a little more clearly? While I understand the gist of how you corrected the error, I am having a hard time finding the parameters your changed in my own files.
Thanks,
Patrick
