This section contains different versions of the software, a change log is available here. It might be necessary to keep 32-bit and 64-bit versions in separate folders.
If you are a new user, you should:
- Download the latest version of HAWC2.
- Extract the zip file and run get_mac_adresses.exe, which will produce a *.mac file
- Send the *.mac file to hawcstab2@windenergy.dtu.dk
- Receive the updated licensemanager.dll once produced and sent by DTU Wind Energy
- Download HAWCStab2 and place it and the license manager (and possibly also the libiomp5md.dll) in the folder of your choice.

Release Notes
Version 2.15 - OCTOBER 23. 2018
- Steady state response validated against HAWC2 12.6
- The user manual is updated.
- Bug fixes:
- The Rayleigh damping matrix for the remaining turbine is now also computed if a blade only analysis has been done before.
- The influence of wind speed change on thrust coefficient in the dynamic inflow model has been corrected.
- The command line version can now compute with a constant torque controller above rated.
- The logarithmic decrement damping for the tower now behaves correctly again (same damping computed as in HS2 2.13).
- Unintentional line breaks in the transfer function output files are removed.
- Changes:
- Now in the .amp file we write the components of the last node of a body named 'tower'. If there are no bodies named like this, the last body of the ground fixed substructure is selected.
- The mode sorting has been updated and is more robust. See the manual for details.
- The maximum lift coefficient for an airfoil section to be considered 'zero-lift' is now 0.01 to avoid problems in the dynamic stall model.
- Rotor and drive train inertia are now included in the power output file.
- New features
- The optimal operating conditions can be computed at the wind speeds listed in the operational_data_file. The need for equidistant spacing is removed.

Release Notes
version 2.14: Thursday 7 November 2017
- Steady state response validated against HAWC2 12.5
- Updated user manual and now with pdf bookmarks.
- Minor bug fixes:
- Controller tuning.
- When zooming in on plots.
- Rayleigh damping matrix for the remaining turbine would not be computed if the blade analysis was done first.
- Changes
- Added the real part of the aero(servo)elastic eigenvalues in the last columns of the *.cmb file.
- Extra column with element elongation data in the *_dfl_u*.ind output file when calculating the steady state element deflections.
- When using HAWC2S, the file names of the output has been sanitized and is now also documented in the user manual.
- Nodal positions and element rotations are now described in the coordinate system of the last body on the rotor, i.e., the blade.
- New features
- A new automatic mode sorting routine that does not require any user input.
- Command to save the eigenvalues when using the command line version HAWC2S.
- Optionally define a controller tuning output file name.
- The steady state computation generates two additional output files (see user manual for description).
- Removed features
- Saving of the animation of the eigenmodes was broken, and has been removed.
