v2.4.3

Wide-ranging code modification by adhering to clang tidy readability-identifier-naming

v2.4.2

Unit test fix
Update submodules

v2.4.1

Performance improvements

• warning to consolidate turbine input lines
• faster handling of many actuator instances
• faster handling of many geometry refinement tags

Wide-ranging code modification by adhering to clang tidy readability-identifier-naming

Miscellaneous boundary condition improvements

Makes Waves2AMR reg test deterministic

v2.4.0

Usability updates:

• actuator epsilon can be specified as a single value, assumed to be uniform in all three components
• post_processing directory name can be specified by user

Feature updates:

• actuator line wing can vary pitch with time, can be represented in quasi-2D, and further available tweaks

v2.3.2

Accumulation of small changes

• multiphase CFL conforms to typical expectations (desired CFL <= 1)
• reg test fixes
• fix external ghost cell fill for mac velocity

v2.3.1

Accumulation of bug fixes and user interface improvements

• unifying gravity arguments in ChannelFlow, ABL
• fixing initialization of ABL Mesoscale
• fixing hdf5 regtests
• checking duplicate field entries in input files (mainly for post-processing)

v2.3.0

Actuator line implementation now includes functionality for a nonuniform point distribution when the filtered-lifting-line correction (FLLC) is active.

Obsolete implementation of coupling with HOS-Ocean is deprecated; fully replaced by Waves2AMR.

v2.2.1

After making density argument of OpenFAST turbines necessary, this version includes the argument in the unit tests, allowing OpenFAST unit tests to pass. Also fixes another bug in the diagnostic routines that occurred on GPUs.

v2.2.0

Waves2AMR submodule now associated with Exawind organization repository, not personal repository. Switching between v2.1.0 and v2.2.0 can cause issues with the submodule references.

Bug fix to diagnostics function that reported maxima of velocity and their locations -- avoids segfault.
Duplicate sampling or plotting fields automatically removed

v2.1.0

(Note: v2.2.0 is preferred as the initial Waves2AMR-compatible implementation because it points to the repository belonging to the Exawind github organization)

Integrating the library "Waves2AMR" as a submodule. This enables AMR-Wind to read modes files generated by HOS-Ocean and put the corresponding ocean waves into the fluid domain as the simulation evolves. This submodule requires the fftw library as a dependency. By default, the Waves2AMR capabilities are not compiled, but the submodule is still present. Before turning on these capabilities, ensure that the submodule has been initialized and updated. The fftw dependency is automatically recognized by Spack when using the variant "+waves2amr", which also serves to activate the Waves2AMR features.

Other helpful improvements since v2.0.0:

• a bug fix for the timetable feature of ABL / ABLForcing
• sampling enabled for derived fields
• a bug fix to enable correct sampling of the actuator source term
