example.turbine_cluster_modelchain_example.initialize_wind_farms(my_turbine, e126)[source]¶

Initializes two WindFarm objects.

This function shows how to initialize a WindFarm object. A WindFarm needs a wind turbine fleet specifying the wind turbines and their number or total installed capacity (in Watt) in the farm. Optionally, you can provide a wind farm efficiency (which can be constant or dependent on the wind speed) and a name as an identifier. See WindFarm for more information.

Parameters:

my_turbine (WindTurbine) – WindTurbine object with self provided power curve.
e126 (WindTurbine) – WindTurbine object with power curve from the OpenEnergy Database turbine library.

Return type:

tuple(WindFarm, WindFarm)
