All of these files compose the current version of the SOWFA (Simulator for 
Offshore Wind Farm Applications), created at the National Renewable Energy 
Laboratory (NREL).  The files are based on the OpenFOAM software and are 
either new files or modifications of files in the OpenFOAM source code 
distribution. Please see the included OpenFOAM readme file 
("README.OpenFOAM") and the GPL licence information ("COPYING"). Access
to and use of SOWPA imposes obligations on the user, as set forth in the 
NWTC Design Codes DATA USE DISCLAIMER AGREEMENT that can be found at

Required OpenFOAM Version:  v1812
Optional OpenFAST Version:  dev



This is a placeholder for a stable version of SOWFA meant to work with 
OpenFOAM-v1812.  We are currently developing this code on the 'dev' branch
of this repository.  If you would like to check it out, please checkout
that branch and explore.  SOWFA-v1812 will work with OpenFOAM-v1812, will contain
one unified solver, and will generally be improved.
