How to define a DLC load case in QBlade-CE?
Quote from sjx21 on 11. April 2025, 05:25Hi, I’m new to QBlade. If anyone could help on how I can define a DLC load case like 1.2, 1.4 and 1.5 in QBlade-CE?
I know QBlade-EE has the corresponding function easily, however I have to use QBlade-CE at current stage and need to generate DLC load simulation.
Thank you very much.
Your insight and help will be highly appreciated.

it’s possible to generate the exact same DLC (Design Load Case) simulations in QBlade Community Edition (CE) as in QBlade Enterprise Edition (EE). The key difference is that QBlade EE provides full automation for this process, reducing setup time and minimizing manual work.
In QBlade CE, you can set up DLCs manually by configuring the appropriate boundary conditions (e.g., wind, waves, current, etc.) and operating conditions (e.g., power production states, fault scenarios, etc.) according to the specifications outlined in the relevant standards (such as IEC 61400-x). These conditions are then defined within your simulation setup.
Best regards,
David
