Example: Optimize yaw and compare AEP in parallel#
"""Example: Optimize yaw and compare AEP in parallel
This example demonstrates how to perform a yaw optimization and evaluate the performance
over a full wind rose. The example repeats the steps in 04 except using parallel
optimization and evaluation.
Note that constraints on parallelized operations mean that some syntax is different and
not all operations are possible. Also, rather passing the ParallelFlorisModel
object to a YawOptimizationSR object, the optimization is performed
directly by member functions
