WAsP 11.1 release notes

Version 11.1.0016


11.1 release A:

New features:

  • Most importantly: Integration of turbulence and flow inclination from WAsP CFD results files
  • Site effects tab now separates IBZ and CFD information (relevant reports too)
  • During a calculation, loading CFD layers from the results is significantly faster
  • Added a dialog when sending a WAsP CFD job to the computer cluster using the WAsP CFD calculation manager, informing that you are about to spend WAsP CFD calculation credits
  • Site effects results once copied to clipboard have three decimal format
  • Recalculated WAsP CFD result files for Parco Ficticio so that includes the turbulence and flow inclination results
  • Removed script "cross prediction excel (save ws)" and updated "cross prediction– Excel"
  • When CFD filenames are auto generated, concatenating in part of the job GUID, the first character is dropped off

Fixes the following problems:

  • OWC-Window failure fixed
  • Prompted switch from LIB to GWC export extension is now working properly
  • Version 11.0.0236

    11.0 release D3:

    Fixes the following problems:

    • Coexistance clash with WAsP Engineering 3
    • Re-implements the roughness-roses script for a reference-mast   

    11.0 release D:

    Fixes the following problems:

    • Saving from resource grids now possible again
    • Removed some irritating dialog boxes
    • Dragging vector maps around in the workspace tree is now more intelligently handled
    • Installations of 11 no longer add multiple entries to the Add/Remove programs

    11.0 release C:

    Fixes some problems regarding:

    • Wind farm in workspace-root obstructs associations between turbine/wind farms and vector map
    • With an open Wind atlas, inserting a met station causes an error
    • Expired temporary licence notification
    • Error uploading file
    • Cannot export workspace to WAsP 10 format
    • Vector map with no elevation
    • WAsP 11 needs to look for and see the WAsP Map Editor 11
    • Copy- to clipboard problems in Reference site and Met station
    • Gaussian hill generator does not close the contours perfectly
    • Windows user names with Ä character cause licence registration failure
    • Change the mail in case of the message "calculation server access information is invalid..."

    Version 11.0.0214


    11.0 release B:

    Fixes some problems regarding:

    • Display of Wind Farms and Obstacles
    • Functioning of the Calculation Manager
    • Installation of the palette file
    • Version number reporting

    Version 11.0.0212


    11.0 release A:

    New features:

    • Most importantly: Introduction of the WAsP CFD feature: terrain effects are calculated by an external CFD-model (Ellipsys), resulting in higher accuracy, especially in case of complex terrain;
    • New Terrain Analysis hierarchy member, to which vector maps are always associated
    • New Generalized Wind Climate (*.gwc) file format replaces the Wind Atlas (*.lib) file format
    • Vertical wind profile model and parameter settings are now part of the Generalized Wind Climate file; a number of model parameters, which in WAsP 10 and earlier versions were saved with the WAsP project, are now saved with the Generalized Wind Climate file
    • Unlimited number of points in WAsP terrain map files
    • A number of features like map-handling and resource-grid calculations have been improved over WAsP 10;
    • A new dongle-free, internet-based licensing system is introduced
