windpowerlib.wind_turbine.get_turbine_types¶

windpowerlib.wind_turbine.get_turbine_types(print_out=True, filter_=True)[source]¶

Get all wind turbine types provided in the OpenEnergy database (oedb).

By default only turbine types for which a power coefficient curve or power curve is provided are returned. Set filter_=False to see all turbine types for which any data (f.e. hub height, rotor diameter, …) is provided.

Parameters:	print_out (bool) – Directly prints a tabular containing the turbine types in column ‘turbine_type’, the manufacturer in column ‘manufacturer’ and information about whether a power (coefficient) curve exists (True) or not (False) in columns ‘has_power_curve’ and ‘has_cp_curve’. Default: True. filter (bool) – If True only turbine types for which a power coefficient curve or power curve is provided in the OpenEnergy database (oedb) are returned. Default: True.
Returns:	Contains turbine types in column ‘turbine_type’, the manufacturer in column ‘manufacturer’ and information about whether a power (coefficient) curve exists (True) or not (False) in columns ‘has_power_curve’ and ‘has_cp_curve’.
Return type:	pd.DataFrame

Notes

If the power (coefficient) curve of the desired turbine type (or the turbine type itself) is missing you can contact us via github or windpowerlib@rl-institut.de. You can help us by providing data in the format as shown in the data base.
