Description

PCwsAdjDens applies the wind speed corection described in IEC 61400-12-1 (2005) for active power controlled turbines (i.e. pitch controlled turbines).

Usage

1
PCwsAdjDens(ws, rho, rho.ref = 1.225, rho.round = 0.05)

Arguments

ws

observed wind speed

rho

observed density

rho.ref

the reference density to use (defaults to 1.225 kg m^{-3})

rho.round

the value to round to (defaults to 0.05 kg m^{-3})

Details

Density is rounded to the nearest 0.05 kg m^{-3}, except in the region of rho.ref \pm 0.05 kg m^{-3}.

Value

ws.adj the adjusted wind speed
