PCQueryTurbineModel: Get an estimate of turbine power production from a wind...

In AndyClifton/PowerPerformance: Package to analyze wind resource and wind turbine data (developer test version)

Description

PCQueryTurbineModel queries the power curve to find the power expected at a given wind speed, if the wind speed is input. If the power is input, the wind speed will be estimated from the power. PCQueryTurbineModel uses approx to perform a linear interpolation between the input power curve data points to the point of interest. Wind speeds that exceed the range of data in the input power curve are assumed to have 0 mean power.

Usage

PCQueryTurbineModel(power.curve, ws = NULL, power = NULL)

Arguments

power.curve	a power curve object containing information about wind speeds and power
ws	the wind speed (can be a vector)
power	the power (can be a vector)

Value

if ws is input, a vector of power at wind speed ws

if power is input, a vector of the lowest wind speed to achieve that power

Note

either ws or power should be given as an input.
