calculate_power_output
(weather, my_turbine, e126, dummy_turbine)[source]¶ Calculates power output of wind turbines using the
ModelChain
.The
ModelChain
is a class that provides all necessary steps to calculate the power output of a wind turbine. You can either use the default methods for the calculation steps, as done for ‘my_turbine’, or choose different methods, as done for the ‘e126’. Of course, you can also use the default methods while only changing one or two of them, as done for ‘dummy_turbine’.Parameters: - weather (pd.DataFrame) – Contains weather data time series.
- my_turbine (WindTurbine) – WindTurbine object with self provided power curve.
- e126 (WindTurbine) – WindTurbine object with power curve from the OpenEnergy Database.
- dummy_turbine (WindTurbine) – WindTurbine object with power coefficient curve from example file.
