Design of high-deflection foils MHK applications - FEA models - RivGen Turbines

The Ocean Renewable Power Company's (ORPC's) goal is to design, develop, and test hydrofoils with large deflections. The effects of the deflections on cross-flow turbine performance would be evaluated in order to inform design considerations for full-scale water turbines and other marine hydrokinetic devices. FEA models - NASTRAN Baseline RivGen turbine Proposed new design

Sierra/SD – User’s Guide for NasGen – 5.20

NasGen provides a path for migration of structural models from Nastran bulk data format (BDF) into both an Exodus mesh file and an ASCII input file for Sierra Structural Dynamics (Salinas) and Solid Mechanics (Adagio). Many tools at Sandia National Labs (SNL) use the Exodus format. This document describes capabilities and limitations of the NasGen translation software.

Sierra/SD – User’s Guide for NasGen – 5.18

NasGen provides a path for migration of structural models from NASTRAN bulk data format (BDF) into both an Exodus mesh file and an ASCII input file for Sierra Structural Dynamics (Salinas) and Solid Mechanics (Presto). Many tools at Sandia National Labs (SNL) use the Exodus format. NasGen was written specifically for Salinas and Presto but should be usable with a number of these packages.
