OpenFAST v3.3.0

The binary files in this release were built with the Visual Studio solution files distributed with OpenFAST (not using cmake), using

• Intel Parallel Studio XE 2019 for Fortran (Update 5) with Microsoft Visual Studio 2017

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C) (v1.40), for build without Simulink interface

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 (C) (v1.41), for build in Matlab

• MATLAB Version: 9.11.0.1837725 (R2021b) Update 2

• FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe is built with OpenMP libraries and linked with dynamic libraries.

  • You will need this Intel Fortran redistributable package installed to run FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe if you do not already have Intel Fortran 2019 Update 5 installed. See the installation instructions here: https://software.intel.com/content/www/us/en/develop/articles/redistributable-libraries-for-intel-c-and-fortran-2019-compilers-for-windows.html.
  • You may also need a redistributable library for Visual Studio installed. See instructions here: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/topic/the-latest-supported-visual-c-downloads-2647da03-1eea-4433-9aff-95f26a218cc0

• The other OpenFAST executables DO NOT require these redistributable libraries to be installed. Instead, they were built with static libraries.

OpenFAST v3.2.1

The binary files in this release were built with the Visual Studio solution files distributed with OpenFAST (not using cmake), using

• Intel Parallel Studio XE 2019 for Fortran (Update 5) with Microsoft Visual Studio 2017
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C) (v1.40), for build without Simulink interface
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 (C) (v1.41), for build in Matlab
• MATLAB Version: 9.11.0.1837725 (R2021b) Update 2

NOTES:

• The FAST S-function was built with a few changes to the source code to work around build errors (see 5ca2b90):
  • = NULL was removed from the last two arguments in the definition of FAST_Sizes in FAST_Library.h:

  EXTERNAL_ROUTINE void FAST_Sizes(int * iTurb, const char *InputFileName, int *AbortErrLev, int * NumOuts, double * dt, double * tmax, int *ErrStat, char *ErrMsg, char *ChannelNames, double *TMax, double *InitInputAry);
  

  • The first &TMax argument was added to the call to FAST_Sizes in FAST_SFunc.c:

  FAST_Sizes(&iTurb, InputFileName, &AbortErrLev, &NumOutputs, &dt, &TMax, &ErrStat, ErrMsg, ChannelNames, &TMax, InitInputAry);
  

• FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe is built with OpenMP libraries and linked with dynamic libraries.
  • You will need this Intel Fortran redistributable package installed to run FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe if you do not already have Intel Fortran 2019 Update 5 installed.

• Microsoft Visual C++ 2015 (C) (v1.40), for build without Simulink interface
• Microsoft Visual C++ 2017 (C) (v1.41), for build in Matlab
• MATLAB Version: 9.11.0.1837725 (R2021b) Update 2

NOTES:

• Unlike previous releases of OpenFAST, there is now NO NEED for a MAP++ DLL; this code has been statically linked into the executables.
• FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe is built with OpenMP libraries and linked with dynamic libraries.
  • You will need this Intel Fortran redistributable package installed to run FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe if you do not already have Intel Fortran 2019 Update 5 installed.

• The executables and OpenFAST-Simulink_x64.dll all require MAP_x64.dll.
• FAST.Farm_x64_OMP.exe is built with OpenMP libraries and linked with dynamic libraries.
