Problem

What does “Project Info” within the release notes mean?

Solution

The references to “Project Info” refer to the Code compatibility and non-standard options definition dialogs, which can be accessed at the bottom of the Project Information dialog (using the File -> Project Info… menu item).

Tick the executable option that you want to set the Project Info for (e.g. Turbine calculations (dtbladed.exe)) and click the Define... button. The following dialog will be shown:

The Special data text input box is where labels and values can be entered to inform the calculation code to carry out some special feature or non-standard option. These might be client specific features – for example a particular type of gearbox loss model, or they might be general features which we have not yet put into the user interface – for example heave plates for floating turbines.

A Project Info user guide document is available here.

It is also possible to provide a network mapping to a specific version of the Bladed calculation executable (dtbladed.exe) using the Code location box, as shown in the image.
