Welcome to RAFT's online documentation! | ||
RAFT Documentation | ||
================== | ||
|
||
RAFT (**R**\ esponse **A**\ mplitudes of **F**\ loating **T**\ urbines) is a | ||
Python code for frequency-domain analysis of floating wind turbines. RAFT works in | ||
the frequency domain to provide efficient computations of a floating wind | ||
system's response spectra accounting for platform hydrodynamics, quasi-static | ||
mooring reactions, rotor aerodynamics, and linearized control. | ||
Python code for frequency-domain analysis of floating wind turbines. RAFT uses | ||
quasi-static and frequency-domain models to provide efficient computations of | ||
a floating wind system's response spectra accounting for platform hydrodynamics, | ||
mooring reactions, rotor aerodynamics, and turbine control. | ||
It can be used to calculate response amplitude | ||
operators (RAO's), power spectral densities, mean/static properties, and | ||
response metrics based on mean and root-mean-square values of each output. | ||

||
RAFT serves as the lowest fidelity "Level 1" dynamics model in the WEIS | ||
(Wind Energy with Integrated Servo-control) | ||
toolset for multifidelity co-design of wind turbines. WEIS is a framework that | ||
toolset for control co-design of floating wind turbines. WEIS is a framework that | ||
combines multiple NREL-developed tools to enable design optimization of floating | ||
offshore wind turbines. See the `WEIS documentation <https://weis.readthedocs.io>`_ | ||
and `GitHub repository <https://github.com/WISDEM/WEIS>`_ for more information. | ||
|
||
Following a modular philosophy, RAFT can be used independently for various | ||
frequency-domain modeling needs. Or, it can be used as an integrated part of | ||
WEIS through its OpenMDAO wrapper. | ||
