v3.2.2

• Bug fix: sort turbulence intensity field in post-calculation step @bayc in #564
• Corrected rotor diameter, Cp, Ct for IEA 15 MW RWT @pduff-code in #553

v3.2.1

What's Changed

• Bug fix: cast reference_wind_height to float by @Bartdoekemeijer in #507

• Bug fix: reset for zero yaw angles by @rafmudaf in 2fc9c54

  • In subsequent function calls to FlorisInterface.calculate_wake, the yaw angles were not reset when they are all zeros. This means that if initially the yaw angles are non-zero and then they’re all-zero, the non-zero yaw settings are retained.
