_FAST.Farm_ received a major upgrade with the addition of background wake-added turbulence effects across the entire farm domain. This improves the turbulence characteristics of propagating turbine wakes.

### AeroDisk
236-
_AeroDisk_ is a new module for a disk actuator aerodynamic module. This module assumes a rigid disk with only a few degrees of freedom for modeling turbine aerodynamics with a simple actuator disk. This is useful for modeling turbines that are not of interest in very large wind farms modeled by _FAST.Farm_, but whose wake dynamics are needed for turbines further into the wind farm that are of interest. We do not recommend using this module with standalone _OpenFAST_ simulations.

_AeroDisk_ is a new module for a disk actuator aerodynamic module for modeling turbine aerodynamics as a simple actuator disk. This module assumes that the rotor is a rigid disk, and so, should be not be combined with _BeamDyn_ or _ElastoDyn_ with blade degrees of freedom enabled; it is meant to be used with the new _Simplified-ElastoDyn_ module. This is useful for modeling turbines that are not of interest in very large wind farms modeled by _FAST.Farm_, but whose wake dynamics are needed for turbines further into the wind farm that are of interest. We do not recommend using this module with standalone _OpenFAST_ simulations.

### AeroDyn
244-
_AeroDyn_ improvements include a new input file, nacelle drag, visualization improvements, unsteady aero for tailfins, multi-rotor support in the driver and interface library, a simple ground effect model for _OLAF_ wakes, using _InflowWind_ pointers for data access, and many bug fixes. With the removal of _AeroDyn14_, _AeroDyn15_ is now simply referred to as _AeroDyn_ in the input files and code (documentation may not be fully updated).
