error at simulation time

[matheusposilva]

I'm trying to run Openfast with the Spar example, but when I change the time simulation to more than 60s the program shows this problem. Can anyone help me with this

Dear @matheusposilva,

Similar questions have been asked on our forum, e.g., here https://forums.nrel.gov/t/error-ff-wind-array-was-exhausted/1267.

The OpenFAST r-test only provides sample input; the wind files, in particular, were purposely made short to reduce the size of the r-test archive. You should run TurbSim to generate the turbulent wind data that you need for your own use--longer simulations require a longer time series of wind inflow.

Best regards,
