Feature request--Coupling OpenFAST with AMR-Wind or nalu-wind for floating wind turbine. #1588

Closed ZL6462 closed 1 year ago

ZL6462 commented 1 year ago

Dear all,

I am wondering that whether can we couple the OpenFAST with the AMR-Wind or nalu-wind to calculate the performance of the FOWT, namely considering the platform motion.

Thanks for your attention!

Dear @ZL6462,

I would think these questions would be better asked on the AMR-Wind and Nalu-Wind issues pages: https://github.com/Exawind, but I'll just say that OpenFAST has been coupled to both, as long as the floating platform, hydrodynamics, and moorings are modeled within OpenFAST. Capability for full two-phase flow (air, water in CFD) coupled to OpenFAST is under development.

Best regards,
