View source: R/power.density.R

Description

This function calcultes the power density wind for each anemometer.

Usage

1
power.density(datawd, ane, dist)

Arguments

datawd

an object of class windata.

ane

a vector of character strings with anemometers names.

dist

a vector of character strings with the distribution to calculate the power density wind. The possible distrbutions are: "np" (no parametric distribution), "weibul", "gama" and "lognormal". (see details)

Details

It's important to see what is the best fit of distribution before to calcuate the annual energy production. It can be seen with the function plotWD(data, ane, type="fit")

Value

a data.frame with the results of power density for the differents anemometers.

## Calculation of the power density of the anemometers "ane10" and "ane18" from "wd" dataset.
power.density(wd10, ane = c("ane10", "ane18"), dist = "np")
