Note: at some point in the past, maybe around version 3.0, this case was disabled as it did not compare well when run on different platforms. This case was then never updated after `WaveTMax` was reduced from 3630 seconds to 600 seconds. This was done for all offshore cases to memory usage on GH actions (the shorter `WaveTMax` results in different waves). To verify the changes introduced by changing to AD15 were minimal, two comparisons were made. For the first comparison, the original AD14 results with `WaveTMax=3630` were compared with AD15 results also using `WaveTMax=3630`. These results were reasonably close. For the second comparison, a new baseline using AD14 and `WaveTMax=600` was compared against AD15 with `WaveTMax=600` also.

NOTE: the Bladed style wind input file does not contain tower information. So the tower shadow in AD15 was turned off

…for a while Cases affected: - 5MW_OC4Jckt_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr_MGrowth - Slight changes in AD loads, and minor changes in SD resulting in very slight changes in the SD reaction loads - hd_5MW_ITIBarge_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr (Failed) - Time series were shortened, so wave time series are different (driver cases) - hd_5MW_OC4Jckt_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr_MGrowth - Different grid than in prior runs.

- Simplify 5MW_OC4Jckt_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr_MGrowth by shortening - Remove unrealistic HD driver cases The hd_5MW_OC4Jckt_DLL_WTurb_WavesIrr_MGrowth and hd_OC3tripod_offshore_fixedbottom_wavesirr cases used a single motion point at the platform reference point. This was mapped rigidly to all structure below, which resulted large motions of the tower bases, which is not the case with the fully coupled fixed bottom case these corresponded to. So we are simply removing these two cases

Removing AD14 and replacing with AD15. This PR supercedes #18 and #87 (both PRs sat for too long and got a bit stale).
This PR also contains updates based on comments in PR #87. This is currently a draft PR; the description will be updated as cases are updated.
The following cases were updated from AD14 to AD15 (see notes below for comparisons):

NOTE: the tower shadow was turned off since the Bladed wind input file did not contain any tower info (regenerating this file results in a different time series).

Added tail fin into ED and AD15 for this case (already used AD15).
When FAST8 was introduced, the tail fin option in AeroDyn 15 was not implemented. So this test case has been unstable with AD15 and was turned off. Adding the tail fin from the updated AD15 to the model does not give very good agreement with the FAST7 version of this case (CertTest #15). This is most likely due to missing features in the AeroDyn tail fin, most notably that the
TFinIndMod=1option is not available yet (somewhat related to the FAST7 option ofSubAxIndin the furl file).Despite not matching the FAST7 results very well, we think it best to add this case as is and note that it should be updated when
TFinIndMod=1is available. For later comparison, the Test15 results from FAST7 have been added along with a note about this.OpenFAST devrefers to the OpenFAST dev results prior to this PR, andOpenFAST AD15 tailfinare the new results.SWRT_YFree_VS_EDC01



As with the above case, the match with the FAST7 results is not great due to the missing induction option for the tail fin. Note also that the new results are using the same AeroDyn configuration as the above case (no DBEMT even though the original case had this enabled -- this was done for convenience while debugging the tail fin and can be updated at a later time).
Note: the
FAST7 Test15is really test 16 (incorrect label).OpenFAST AD14 devrefers to the OpenFAST dev results with AD14 prior to this PR, andOpenFAST AD15 tailfinare the new results.SWRT_YFree_VS_WTurb


This regression test roughly follows the expected general trends for the selected channels (not very many channels were common between the original FAST7 test and the current test version). However note that the yaw is different, which may be related to the above notes on the induction for the tail fin.
Note that the shaft torque (
LSShftMxs) doesn't follow as well after including the tail fin.UAE_Dnwind_YRamp_WSt


This test had previously been disabled due to instabilities. With the new AD15, the results are much smoother and follow the same trends as the AD14 results.
WP_VSP_WTurb_PitchFail:
Using the same AD15 input file that the
WP_VSP_WTurbcase uses. This causes some minor differences in the aerodynamic power, thus rotor speed, blade pitch, and other output results changed slightly.
