[deg]<br />

0° – 150°<br />

(30° sectors)<br />

� 3D, 3-component Kaimal turbulent wind field (2 minutes sample)<br />

� 6 different wind speed (and wave) seeds for each wind speed bin<br />

� The first 18 runs are with a yaw error of +8 deg, the last 18 with -8deg per wind bin<br />

� The 6 seeds are 6 times re-used for each wind speed bin<br />

� x = 1-6 according to wind direction (0-150deg in 30deg steps)<br />

� y = 1-6 according to wave direction (0-150deg in 30deg steps)<br />

� log. vertical shear with ground roughness length of 0.002m<br />

� NTM is site specific<br />

� NSS with irregular waves defined using Jonswap spectrum (peakness = 1.0)<br />

� tidal range is equal to HAT – LAT, 10% = 0.22m
