This repository contains the model data of the onshore reference wind turbine developed within IEA Wind Task 37.
The documentation of the turbine and the design process is accessible here: https://www.nrel.gov/docs/fy19osti/73492.pdf
The data include the OpenFAST aeroelastic files, a .yaml file with the corresponding json schema and open-source controllers.
The documentation of the .yaml file is available at https://windio.readthedocs.io/en/latest/
The OpenFAST model uses the ROSCO controller https://github.com/NREL/ROSCO
