SOWFA FAST compilation error

I am having difficulty compiling FAST as part of the SOWFA archive for use with the windPlantPisoSolverFAST on both ubuntu and OpenSUSE 11 linux environments. The errors for ubuntu and OpenSUSE, respectively:

…

I would greatly appreciate any guidance on this issue.

Earlier, I sent an email regarding this issue. The messages are harmless and should compile SOWFA to the end.

However, I cleaned up the code and the make files to eliminate the messages in the newer version (SOWFA v1.0.1-alpha)

Hi,

==1==
I am having difficulty in compiling SOWFA.

The operating system is Ubuntu 12.04.1 LTS - 64-bit.
The version of OpenFOAM is 2.1.1.

==2==
The steps taken to compile SOWFA are:

  • Put “sowfa.tgz” under the user directory ( $WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR).
  • “tar -xvzf sowfa.tgz”
  • Rename the “sowfa” to the “kb8e10-2.1.1”
  • Run ./Allwclean
  • Run ./Allwmake

==3==
Nevertheless, I obtain a group of errors. The entire log file is as follows:
[url]http://txtup.net/J9vxF[/url]

In short, I obtain FAST and windPlantPisoSolver errors.

==4==
In detail,

Found the solution for the first FAST error, that is CALL RANDOM_SEED, ([url]Compiling FAST under Linux with gfortran - #4 by Bonnie.Jonkman]) although I’ve put it as it was just for completeness.

Many thanks for any help in advance.

Hi,

==1==
I have made some attempts to solve the so-called compiling errors. Eventually, I made the “fastDuct” tutorial run.

==2==
For the FORTRAN warnings, I have replaced HydroCalc.f90 file with that from FAST v7.02.00d-bjj (27-February-2013) considering random_seed issue is solved.

==3==
With this, I start receiving 2 new errors even though the random_seed error disappeared.

[code]…/FAST/Source/HydroCalc.f90:3729.110:

displacement’, X0(4), X0(5), X0(6), TransMat0, ‘HydroDyn initialization’ )
1
Error: More actual than formal arguments in procedure call at (1)
…/FAST/Source/HydroCalc.f90:2648.84:

L SmllRotTrans ( ‘platform displacement’, X(4), X(5), X(6), TransMat, TRIM(Num2
1
Error: Function ‘num2lstr’ at (1) has no IMPLICIT type[/code]

==4==
Then, considering, in the previous files there were no ‘HydroDyn initialization’ or ‘TRIM(Num2’, I have deleted them and recompiled everything. With this, all FORTRAN-FAST errors have disappeared. (Might it resulted in more serious errors that did start not showing up.).

However, the compiling entire case still led to the problem:

make: *** No rule to make target `pisoFoam.dep', needed by `Make/linux64GccDPOpt/dependencies'. Stop.

==5==
So, I decided to do the compiling one by one by following the sequence in the “Allwmake” file.

==6==
i) src/finiteVolume
ii) src/turbineModels
iii) applications/utilities/setFieldsABL
iv) applications/solvers/windEnergy/ABLPisoSolver
v) applications/solvers/windEnergy/windPlantPisoSolver
vi) src/fastturb

are compiled without any error apart from a few warnings appeared from the last two cases.

==7==
i) src/openfast/bin

gave the first error.

cp: cannot create regular files for fastPisoSolver/fast/bin cp: cannot create regular files for windPlantPisoSolverFAST/fast/bin

Then, I have realized that there is no such sub-directories under both fastPisoSolver and windPlantPisoSolverFAST directories; that’s why, the “libfast.a” couldn’t be copied. Therefore, I have generated those directories and then “openfast” was compiled without any explicit errors.

==8==
Later, I have tried to compile “applications/solvers/windEnergy/fastPisoSolver”; but, it gave error.

Checking the directory, nor createFields.H neither pisoFoam.C was therein. Hence, I have modified pisoFoam original by looking at SOWFA_webinar_05-03-2012.pdf - Implementation - fastPisoSolver section.

The following [url]http://txtup.co/lHjiX[/url] & [url]http://txtup.co/RdIjP[/url] are the modified (!) pisoFoam.C and createFields.H, respectively.

In addition, I have copied “horizontalAxisWindTurbinesFAST.H” into the “fastPisoSolver” directory.

Finally, with these tweaks, fastPisoSolver was compiled.

==9==

i) applications/solvers/windEnergy/windPlantPisoSolverFAST was successfully compiled.

==10==
Lastly, I have run “fastDuct” tutorial for just 0.4 secs. It didn’t blow up.

==11==

Now, I assume that everything is fine; but, I am also pretty sure that this is not the right way of compiling the solvers.

Therefore, I kindly ask for some help to verify these procedures or some ideas why I couldn’t compile the solvers at the first time.

Many thanks in advance for any level of help.

Hi Kuti,

I am following the same steps you used and suggested through this thread. Each of the solver runs fine (few warnings, as you mention), except for “applications/solvers/windEnergy/fastPisoSolver”. However, your fix yield some errors with pisoFoam.C

All the others can run now without problems, except this one.

In my bashrc file WM_PROJECT_USER_DIR is defined as:

However, when installing OpenFoam, I set it here:

Could that be a reason of why I’m having such an error?

Thanks in advance!
