1. INTRODUCTION Bladed is an integrated software package for wind turbine performance and loading calculations. The Bladed theory manual gives full background information and details of the calculation methods used. This user manual complements the theory manual by describing the operation of the user interface. Much of this information is also available in the on-line Help facility. 1.1 Installation Bladed is designed to run on PC with the following minimum specification:  OS:  RAM:  Cores:  Clock-speed: 2.5GHz  Resolution: XP (service pack 3). 2GB 2 1024 x 768 Bladed is supplied on CD and is installed by means of a setup program. The setup procedure suggests an installation directory for the software, but allows the user to change this if desired. A directory on the local hard disk is recommended. Except for demonstration and educational versions, a software key or USB dongle is provided. A network dongle can also be supplied on request. The setup procedure can install the appropriate device driver and network licence manager. The setup procedure also allows the installation of the Acrobat Reader if desired, which is used to view the User and Theory Manuals on screen. It also installs the Matlab runtime libraries which are used by several modules within Bladed. The preferred screen resolution is at least 1024 x 768 (small fonts), although a resolution of 800 x 600 is acceptable.
1.2 Bladed modules The Bladed package consists of a Base module and a number of optional modules, for which licences are separately available. The Base Module consists of three parts: Base Module Main module Capabilities Steady state calculations, Saving project files, Writing reports, Graphics. Modal analysis, Simulations, Turbulence, Waves, Post- processing. Running calculations in batch mode. Simulation module Batch module The following optional modules are available in addition: Optional Modules Linearisation Seismic Hardware test Capabilities Generation of linearised turbine models. Earthquake simulation. Test a real turbine controller by interfacing it to a Bladed simulation running in real time. Offshore support structure Multiple member tower and support structure. Advanced Transmission Interface Advanced Pitch actuator Interface Electrical dynamics Allows user-defined gearbox/transmission dynamics to be integrated into Bladed simulations through a DLL interface. Allows user-defined pitch actuator dynamics to be integrated into Bladed simulations through a DLL interface. Electrical models of generators and power coverters; network voltage and frequency transients. Site-specific load calculations using Windfarmer output. Windfarmer link 1.3 The Bladed Educational version Bladed Educational is available solely for academic and teaching purposes. Only the Base Module is available, and there are a number of further restrictions, as follows: Turbine model:  The number of blade radial stations is limited to 10 maximum;  The number of tower stations is limited to 5 maximum;  The pitch actuator model is fixed to a first order lag response with 0.3s time constant. No other pitch actuator models are allowed.  The external controller facility is not available.  The use of encrypted data is not supported. Environment:  Simulation periods are limited to 60s maximum.  The "seed" used to initialise the random number generators used to synthesise wind turbulence and wave time series is fixed.  Only the longitudinal component of wind turbulence can be used in simulations. (The other components can be synthesised, but will be ignored in simulations.)  Although the Seismic module is not available, a single seismic calculation is available for demonstration purposes. Calculations and post-processing:
 Calculations cannot be run in Batch mode.  Model linearisation is not available, except as a demo calculation.  The following post-processing calculations are not available, except as demo calculations:  ultimate loads  ultimate load cases   The Extreme Load Extrapolation calculation is not available. linear model 1.4 The Bladed Demonstration version A demonstration version of Bladed is available. A demo project, demo_a.prj, is supplied with Bladed and will be found in the installation folder. This contains simplified details of a representative but artificial 3-bladed 2MW offshore variable speed pitch regulated turbine. This can be used to run most of the available calculations. The demonstration version is restricted as follows: Operation Modal analysis calculation Turbulent wind generation Steady calculations and simulations Restrictions Turbine details may not be changed Turbulence details may not be changed Turbine details may not be changed; other calculation details may be changed Calculation details and input data may not be changed. The Extreme Load Extrapolation calculation is not available. Calculations cannot be run in Batch mode. Not allowed Not allowed, but a sample report may be viewed. Not supported Post processing calculations Batch system Saving project files Writing reports Encrypted data Graphics: viewing calculation results Unrestricted When running a calculation, a message box warns that the appropriate demo data will be used for the calculation. Other project files are also supplied for demonstration purposes. Although these can be viewed, they cannot be used for running calculations. 1.5 Support Bladed is supplied with a one-year maintenance and support agreement, which can be renewed for further periods. This support includes a ‘hot-line’ help service by telephone, fax or e-mail: Telephone: Fax: E-mail It is Garrad Hassan policy to work with clients to respond to their needs so that the software can be constantly improved. As with any software of this complexity, a total absence of bugs cannot be guaranteed, and any reports of bugs, along with comments or suggestions on any aspect of the software, are welcomed. The maintenance and support agreement includes +44 (0)117 972 9900 +44 (0)117 972 9901 BladedAdmin@gl-garradhassan.com
free provision of any revisions or upgrades of the software during the period of the agreement. Modifications to the software to meet the individual needs of specific clients can be made by arrangement. Such work will be charged for at commercial rates. 1.6 Documentation Much of the information contained in this manual is also available in the on-line help facility. There is also a Bladed Theory Manual which explains in more detail the theory behind the calculation methods used. Section 2 of this User Manual gives an overview of how Bladed can be used. The later sections then provide more detail on each function. Sections ‎3 to ‎5 explain in detail how to set up a model of a turbine. Section ‎6 covers the specification of the wind field, and the sea state for offshore turbines. Section ‎7 then explains how to set up and run wind turbine calculations. The post-processing, graphics and reporting facilities are described in Sections ‎8, ‎9 and ‎10 respectively. 1.7 Acknowledgements Bladed was developed with assistance from the Commission of the European Communities under the JOULE II programme, project no. JOU2-CT92-0198.
2. USING BLADED This chapter gives an overview of the ways in which Bladed can be used. It covers the following topics:  General description and layout of the user interface  Entering data  Using project files  Performing calculations  Viewing results  Compiling reports More detailed descriptions follow in later chapters. 2.1 General description and layout of the user interface On starting Bladed, the main Toolbar appears together with the Calculations screen. The Toolbar consists of a set of graphical icons and a number of pull-down menus. The Calculations screen allows the user to select, define and execute a particular calculation. There are various ways of opening further screens which allow the user to define the characteristics of the various parts of the turbine, as well as the characteristics of the wind and various parameters which control the execution of calculations. There is also a graphics facility for viewing results. 2.1.1 Main toolbar - pull-down menus The pull-down menus may be used as follows: File: use this menu to create, open and save project files, and to import modules from other project files. A project file (.prj) contains wind turbine information and/or parameters defining calculations. Using the file type selector on the File Open dialogue box, it is also possible to open a project backup file (.prx), or a file containing all the details relating to a calculation previously carried out (.$pj). This is useful for re-running the calculation with or without modifications. Use the Import facility to import individual modules from other project or calculation details files into the currently active project. The project file header information may be entered or edited using Project Info. Use Protect project to enter a security password to prevent the file being modified by unauthorised users. The Encrypt facility allows any part of the turbine model to be encrypted with a password, so that the data can still be used for calculations but is completely invisible to the user. If necessary, different parts of the turbine can be encrypted by different users, each with a separate password. To make data visible again, use Decrypt and enter the correct password. Specify: this menu allows the user to move directly to a particular screen for specifying any part of the turbine, or any calculation or load case. These screens are also accessible via the Toolbar Icons described below.
Calculation: this menu allows particular calculations to be carried out. See also the Calculation icon on the main toolbar described below. It also allows unwanted calculation results to be deleted. Batch: this is used to control batch‎7.2.7 processing of multiple runs. It also gives access to the Windfarmer Link screen, for which a Windfarmer Link licence is required. Reports: This menu also offers the possibility to write a project report or a calculation report, to append graphs to a report, and to edit or print existing reports. It also gives a choice of report format, which may be ASCII or Microsoft Word. Tools: Copy results allows calculation results to be copied from one location to another. In doing so, the results can be converted between binary and ascii formats if required. There is also a facility to Delete results. Compare Projects allows two project and/or calculation details files to be compared, and can generate a detailed report of the differences. Create Header Files launches a tool to create header files for multiple ASCII data files so that Bladed post processing and data view can be used. There is also a facility for configuring the current printer, and to specify user preferences for certain option settings‎2.8. Windows: switches between any of the currently open windows, and gives access to the turbine summary information window and to the 3D graphical display (which can be animated using the double-arrow icon). Help: activates the on-line Help facility, which contains detailed information on Blade and how to use it. It also gives on-line access to the Bladed User and Theory manuals, and to a facility for upgrading the dongle or security device by entering an appropriate password. 2.1.2 Toolbar icons Beneath the pull-down menus on the toolbar are the Toolbar Icons. Clicking on any one of these opens up the corresponding screen, as follows:  Blades:‎3 to define the blade properties.  Aerofoil sections:‎3.7 to access a database of aerofoil section data.  Rotor:‎4.1 to define the properties of the rotor and overall turbine configuration.  Tower:‎4.4 to define the tower properties.  Power Train:‎0 to define the drive train, generator, energy losses and electrical network.  Nacelle:‎4.11 to define the nacelle geometry and mass.  Control:‎5 to define both power production and supervisory control systems.  The wind input:‎6.1 to define the wind speed and direction including spatial and temporal variations.  Sea state:‎6.12,‎6.13,‎6.14 to define the waves, currents and tide height for offshore turbines.  Modal analysis:‎7.1 to specify the modal analysis of blade and tower vibrations.  Calculations:‎7.2 to select, specify and execute any particular calculation.  Data View:‎9 to view graphs or generate tables of results.  Analyse:‎8 to specify post-processing of results. 2.1.3 The calculation window The Calculations window lists all the available calculations, any one of which may be selected by clicking on it with the mouse. Next to each calculation is an indicator light. If this is green, the calculation may be performed. A red light indicates that no data is available to perform the selected calculation, while a yellow light indicates that some of the required data has been defined but not all.
