heterogeneity_mapper

Class for calculating and visualizing the heterogeneity in the inflow wind speed.

class flasc.analysis.energy_ratio_heterogeneity_mapper.heterogeneity_mapper(df_raw, fm)[source]#

Class for calculating and visualizing the heterogeneity in the inflow wind speed.

This class is useful to calculate the energy ratios of a set of upstream turbines to then derive the heterogeneity in the inflow wind speed. This can be helpful in characterizing the ambient wind speed distribution for operational assets where we do not have such information. Note that heterogeneity may come from multiple sources, not only neighboring farms but also blockage effects of the farm itself.
