## Add a power curve - step 1

To begin adding power curves, click the "Quick Create" button located at the top right corner of the web page. Once the page loads, enter the key information related to the Power Curve.

## Step 2

After entering the key information, click on "Create". This action will direct you to the new main workspace of your power curve.

## Step 3

Within the power curve workspace, explore different tabs that appear alongside the power curve name. The key information of the Power Curve is available under the "Overview" tab.&#x20;

## Step 4

In the "Reference Document" tab, upload and manage all documents linked to this Power Curve. Click on "New" to upload any document into the platform. For demo purpose, the power curve is in an excel file.&#x20;

## Step 5

Next, navigate to the "Curves" tab. This main workspace allows you to enter all relevant information related to your power curves and visualise the plots.

Initially, all fields are marked red, indicating they are empty and need data. To begin populating these fields, switch to "Edit" mode.

## Step 6

Once you have filled in all data related to the first section, proceed to the "Power Curve" section. This is where you populate all the different power and thrust curve data for the modes of the wind turbine model.

## Step 7

For instance, you can add a mode named "Mode 1" and fill in the respective details, such as Power and Thrust values, in the main tabular data.

<figure><img src="/files/wdevQeYpPf8H7SFzAGB4" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

## Step 8

Notice that the fields, such as air density, are pre-filled with 1.225 kg/m3, and wind speeds range from 3 m/s to 25 m/s, which are pre-set values. Feel free to adjust these values according to the power curve.

For the power curve provided, the information pertains to one air density for one mode, with power values ranging from 3 m/s to 25 m/s.

## Step 9

You can populate the power curve data. You can manually enter the values or directly copy-paste the data.

For the demo purpose, this power curve is mentioned as seen in the picture.

Since the values is kW, ensure the same units is selected. You can directly paste the data from Excel to the webpage.

## Step 10

Next head to the "Thrust" section. You can similarly copy-paste the data as done for the power curve data.

<figure><img src="/files/FpjsMrFNFZoWiGOJHaYo" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Ensure that the Thrust Coefficient box is checked (if given data is co-efficient of thrust). Then paste the data.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/tugoFGDTcb0cgoJT64bq" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

## Step 11

Next, input the cut-in and cut-out wind speeds.

From the excel file, note that the cut-in wind speed is 3 m/s, and add a cut-out wind speed of 25 m/s, as the power values range from 3 to 25 m/s.

Define the default operating mode, which is "Mode 1" since only one mode is present.

## Step 12

The "Design Basis" tab allows you to specify conditions for design parameters for the turbine case. Once done, ensure all fields are completed.

## Step 13

Confirm that all information is filled in and proceed to save your work.

Click "Save" and name the version. This demo case, it is named as 'Initial setup'.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/yznoVYYBG1V9CBDDv5PR" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

The Power Curve is now updated.

## Visualise Plots

Click the "Plots" button to visualize the power and thrust curve data.

## Request review of power curve

Exit edit mode, select "Reviews," and request a review. All organisation admins will be notified to review and approve the power curve.

If you hold admin privileges, approval can be granted instantly. The document is now approved.

## Share power curve

Share the Power Curve by clicking "Share." Enter the organization handle if registered on Bézier or share to a person directly via email. Confirm terms and conditions, then share the Power Curve.

## Other Tabs

Use the "Version History" to track multiple iterations of Power Curve data, saved as different versions.&#x20;

<figure><img src="/files/RldIVClFVoKnCz7Wl3Hf" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

Access the "Access" tab to view the list of members or organisations with power curve access.Once shared, details auto-populate.

## Export

To export the power curve in various file formats, go to the "Export" tab.

Export the Power Curve to any format by selecting the format and then clicking "Export." This action will download the digital power curve data automatically. That's the complete process.
