windisch.turbines_input_parameters.TurbinesInputParameters

class windisch.turbines_input_parameters.TurbinesInputParameters(parameters=None, extra=None)

A class used to represent wind turbines with associated type, size, technology, year and parameters.

This class inherits from NamedParameters, located in the klausen package. It sources default parameters for all wind turbine types from a dictionary in default_parameters and format them into an array following the structured described in the klausen package.

Variables:

• sizes (list) – List of string items e.g., [‘100kW’, ‘500kW’, ‘1000kW’]

• application (list) – List of string items e.g., [‘onshore’, ‘offshore’]

• parameters (list) – List of string items e.g., [‘lifetime’, ‘power output’, …]

• years (list) – List of integers e.g., [2000, 2010, 2020, 2040]

• metadata (dict) – Dictionary for metadata.

• values (dict) – Dictionary for storing values, of format {‘param’:[value]}.

• iterations (int) – Number of iterations executed by the method stochastic(). None if static() used instead.
