Dear all,

I tried to run the simulation for monopile IEA 22MW, I got the files from [IEA-22-280-RWT/OpenFAST/IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile at main · IEAWindTask37/IEA-22-280-RWT · GitHub](https://github.com/IEAWindTask37/IEA-22-280-RWT/tree/main/OpenFAST/IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile) and I use Openfast3.5.3 and Rosco 2.8.  
I tried several attempts.  
1- I enabled ROSCO 2.8, and used normal turbulence model with mean wind speed at hub height equal to rated wind speed 11 m/s. I changed the water depth in the IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile.fst from 300 to 34 ( I believe that this value was for floating) and in ElastoDyn I changed the BlPitch=2.42859 and RotSpeed=6.7709 according to the turbine responce in the steady state table from the manual. I changed PtfmHeave according to the equation in the manual  
 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/nrel/original/2X/d/d092f7c204461d4cc22e80f98314518201746e58.png)

I got this error , It couldn’t run and stop from time 0

 ![error](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/nrel/original/2X/a/a5da5966d74d8d1f4df53dcf46bf8a3087f0e823.png)

2- I tried to simplify the model, I used steady wind instead of turbulent. I got this error

 ![error](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/nrel/original/2X/1/1ef8e5dbd0c20dabef2cc2ef909208c8493b6efe.png)  
I don’t know why there is NAN! and the GenPwr and GenTq= zero! ( I didn’t change the DOF in ElastoDyn I keep GenDOF= TRUE)

3- I simplified the model more, I turned of the controller in the ServoDyn, PCMode=VSContrl=zero, and steady wind.  
It terminated normally after 10 hours for 630 sec. (I red in the forum that it takes a long time)

 ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/nrel/original/2X/1/1e292eb9190b9c92296029ef600c0d054811b67d.jpeg)

But I got the GenPwr = negative!!

I don’t know why I have these errors.  
Thanks in advance. I appreciate your help.

Dear @Marwa.Mohamed,

I am a user of OpenFAST, not from NREL staff.

My first question is: Could you please tell us what you are trying to do with OpenFAST?

Second question, could you please explain what Ptfm Heave is used for ?

Third question, could you give more info about the sea state ?

Fourth question, could you share your .fst file ?

Best Regards,

Riad

Thanks for your reply @Riad.Elhamoud.  
1- I want to study the load analysis of the turbine under different design load cases according to IEC 61400-3 and determine the critical load at the seabed to design the monopile.  
2- in the model consideration of SunDyn they pointed to that

3- I used the metoceon data from IEA 15 MW manual, which I watch in webinar for IEA 22 MW that they used the same metoceon data

Dear @Marwa.Mohamed,

Just a few comments:

- The `WtrDpth` specified in _IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile.fst_ seems to be entered incorrectly, but this value is not used because the `WtrDpth` is overwritten in _IEA-22-280-RWT\_HydroDyn.dat_ to be the correct depth.
- When you set `VSContrl` = 0 in ServoDyn, `GenModel` will be used, and unless you changed related parameters, you will not get the generator torque you want. To disable the influence of ROSCO, I would suggest disabling the generator degree of freedom in ElastoDyn (`GenDOF` = FALSE).
- You changed a few other things in the model. Does your simulation run as expected if you use the original `BlPitch` and `RotSpeed` initial conditions together with the original steady wind setting?

Best regards,

Dear @Marwa.Mohamed,

I download the IEA 22 MW OpenFAST model. I tried the model in a free decay where the TTDspFA at time equals zero in ElastoDyn file is set to 1 m in the absence of wind and wave.

- In the .fst file, i disabled ServoDyn, AeroDyn, Inflow.

- In the HydroDyn file, i set WaveMod to zero.

- In the .fst file, i changed the time step and set DT to 0.01 sec.

- In the .fst file, i set CompElast to 1. I realize through reading old posts in the forum that BeamDyn would slow the simulation so i disabled it.

The simulation duration is 630 sec.

As a result, the simulation is too slow compared with the 5 MW !!!

Maybe you could disable BeamDyn to speed up the simulation. In the ElastoDyn file, disable Drivetrain, teether, yaw of the nacelle and the generator as suggested by @Jason.Jonkman

Sorry i did not give you a straight answer. Hope that what i have said may help.

Best Regards,

Riad

Dear Dr. Jason, Thanks for your comments.  
I tried your #3 comment and download again the original files for 22MW monopile, I didn’t changed anything **except the water depth in .fst file.**  
again I got GenPwr=zero!

I don’t know why the GenPwr and GenTq = zero, is there name foe output have been changed when using BeamDyn. It looks like that other outputs are fine.

when I turned off the generator as you recommended `GenDOF` = FALSE, I had also negative GenPwr and GenTr

Dear @Marwa.Mohamed,

Your simulation results suggest that you’ve disabled the ROSCO controller, e.g., either by disabling ServoDyn altogether or by selecting a different pitch or torque control option in ServoDyn. If `GenDOF` = FALSE in ElastoDyn, the controller selection won’t have any effect on the simulation results (other than ServoDyn `GenTq` and `GenPwr`, which will be calculated, but not impact the generator speed), but when `GenDOF` = TRUE, the controller will strongly impact the system response.

Best regards,

Thanks Dr. Jason for your quick response and comment. I understand what you say, that’s why I 'm confused about the results. I enabled `GenDOF` = TRUE, and used ROSCO and I put the DLL\_InFilein the correct path, OpenFast doesn’t complain that it couldn’t run ROSCO! I have attached my ElastoDyn and ServoDyn. I will try another time with testing NTM and see the results.

Do the messages written to the command prompt when OpenFAST is executed mention that ROSCO has been called? Perhaps your are mixing up which ServoDyn input file OpenFAST is calling?

I tried yesterday one thing ( **which I know is wrong** ). I download the original files of IEA 22MW and I changes the water depth to 34 (keep the original initial conditions for Blade pitch angle and rotor speed as it is and the original steady wind 5m/s and I didn’t change any thing in the Degree of Freedom in ElastoDyn) BUT (**in ServoDyn I used the IEA-15-240-RWT-Monopile\_DISCON.IN and Cp\_Ct\_Cq.IEA15MW.txt )** from 15MW to see if again there will be zero generator power??  
The model run for 10 hours as before but in this time there is power from the generator

another thing that in the command prompt the screen was as usual  
generator speed…pitch angle…power…wind speed

Hello Marwa,  
I’m quite puzzled by your errors. A few ideas to debug:

1. Try running the OpenFAST model from the 22MW repo as is. It should generate power
2. You don’t need to debug ServoDyn with BeamDyn turned on. Switch back CompElast to 1 and increase DT to 0.01s and run your tests quickly. Also, you can switch TMax to 10s or so and do quick checks. Power should not be 0 from the start
3. For some colleagues I recently uploaded input and output files on WeTransfer. The link expires on Monday [Unique Download Link | WeTransfer](https://we.tl/t-IOsO1fya1a). The load setup is described in [Radware Bot Manager Captcha](https://iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1088/1742-6596/2767/5/052042/pdf),  
section 3.5

Let us know when you get power (or if you still can’t)

Regards,  
Pietro

I don’t know why the command prompt looks strange when running the turbine with IEA-22-280-RWT\_DISCON.IN , IEA-22-280-RWT\_Cp\_Ct\_Cq.txt. or that’s Ok?

I tried your #3 recommendation, first I tried to understand the files and I found that each wind speed has its own files . So, I tried 4 cases iea-22\_43, iea-22\_75, iea-22\_10, iea-22\_00. I found that the 4 cases has the same files for (DISCON.IN and Cp\_Ct\_Cq.txt) the difference just in the naming. Than I compare these files by the original files (IEA-22-280-RWT\_DISCON.IN and IEA-22-280-RWT\_Cp\_Ct\_Cq.txt) which have been uploaded in Github for public. I found that IEA-22-280-RWT\_DISCON.IN has many differences that’s why it has no generator power out put.

Then, I tried to run the files from [IEA-22-280-RWT/OpenFAST/IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile at main · IEAWindTask37/IEA-22-280-RWT · GitHub](https://github.com/IEAWindTask37/IEA-22-280-RWT/tree/main/OpenFAST/IEA-22-280-RWT-Monopile) **BUT this time I used DISCON.IN and Cp\_Ct\_Cq.txt from the files you shared in WeTransfer** and I gut GenPwr FINALLY!!!

To duple check I went back to the files you shared by **WeTransfer** and tried to run one case which is iea-22\_75 with the (IEA-22-280-RWT\_DISCON.IN and IEA-22-280-RWT\_Cp\_Ct\_Cq.txt) which have been uploaded in Github for public.  
I used CompElast = 1, DT = 0.01s, TMax=60 sec., in iea-22\_75\_InflowFile.dat i used WindType=1. and there is **no power** I couldn’t have GenPwr!!

and again the strange comand prompt

In conclusion, I think that the DISCON.IN that has been uploaded in Github has problem and when using I couldn’t have GenPwr and has strange comand prompt, but when usin the DISCON.IN that you shared in WeTransfer the turbine run normally!

Sorry that I talk a lot. I hope that I didn’t make you confused more.

Hello Marwa,  
I’m glad you’ve found a way to solve the problem. I believe the issue is that you’ve been running an outdated version of ROSCO. You wrote that you are running ROSCO v2.8.0, but both DISCON files are meant for ROSCO v2.9.0 (see line 2 at the top of the files). I’ve run a quick check and I get power for both DISCONs (the one I uploaded to wetransfer and the one on GitHub) when I run ROSCO v2.9.0, but power in only the DISCON from wetransfer when I use ROSCO v2.8.0  
Could you please confirm my hypothesis?  
Best regards,  
Pietro

Dear Dr. Pietro.Bortolotti,  
Thanks for your reply. Your hypothesis is right. when I tried ROSC 2.9.0. I got power and the command prompt run normally with DISCON.IN files on Github.

another question please, is there any way to speed up the simulation of IEA 22MW, Can I turn off BeamDyn or the results will be inaccurate due to the blade torsion.

Thanks for your consideration and help.  
Regards,  
Marwa
