example.modelchain_example.initialize_wind_turbines()

Initializes three WindTurbine objects.

This function shows three ways to initialize a WindTurbine object. You can either use turbine data from the OpenEnergy Database (oedb) turbine library that is provided along with the windpowerlib, as done for the ‘enercon_e126’, or specify your own turbine by directly providing a power (coefficient) curve, as done below for ‘my_turbine’, or provide your own turbine data in csv files, as done for ‘my_turbine2’.

To get a list of all wind turbines for which power and/or power coefficient curves are provided execute ` windpowerlib.wind_turbine.get_turbine_types()`.

Returns:WindTurbine, WindTurbine) Return type:Tuple (WindTurbine,
