Moorpy (Moordyn) to OrcaFlex Line type

[TheMercer]

Hi,

I was wondering if I can get some help converting the Cd\CdAx and Ca\CdAx and density of the line. From volume equivalent to nominal diameter.

Any other props that need to be changed if you know more ?

Thank you in advance for the help

So far I have got everything ports directly. Apart from Cd values

MoorDyn damping Coef * d_Vol = Orcaflex damping Coef * d_Nom

@TheMercer , I am currently working in orcaflex and preparing mooring properties. Please share example data and we can mature the work together.

Hi @vamseeachanta,

So far, it's currently the only conversation for moordyn to orcaflex is the damping.

Which is from equation above. d_Vol = (d_Vol/d_Nom) * d_Nom. (d_Vol/d_Nom) Where this ratio will change depending what you chose to define your mooring line .

Which can be found here for some common already sorted material by NREL. You can get this ratio in python API when working with moorpy
