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

#' Simulated performance data for the WindPACT 1.5 MW Baseline wind turbine
#' 
#' This data set is a combination of inflow wind and turbine power data for the
#' WindPACT 1,500 kW wind turbine. The data are based on simulations of the
#' turbine response to a turbulent inflow. The inflow was simulated using the
#' stochastic windfield modeling tool, "Turbsim". The turbine response was
#' simulated using the aero-elastic simulator "FAST". Data were post processed
#' using matlab to extract the variables described below.
