Wind Factors2 Component

Wind Factors2

Based on the probed simulation and the weather data, this component calculates wind velocities, wind factors for each probing point [8760 hourly branches x number of probing points]. The wind factors are calculated based on the wind velocity and direction for each hour which is scaled up/down accordingly given probing height from ground. For this, we support either a look-up for the closest simulated wind direction or an interpolation between the closest two wind directions.

Input

  • Res
    Eddy Result
  • Points
    List of probing points (caution: might have been culled)
  • U
    Wind Velocity [DataTree] where the [branches] are the wind directions and the [items] are the values for each probing point.
  • R
    R

Output

  • WFS
    Wind Amplification Factors Spatial

Wind Amplification Factors (dimensionless wind velocity) for each simulated wind direction. This yields a datatree of the size [Number of simulated wind directions x number of sensor points]. * ##### WFA Wind Factors Annual

Wind Factors multiplied with the corresponding EPW wind velocity from the nearest simulated wind direction for every hour of the year. This yields a datatree of the size [8760 h x number of sensor points]. * ##### T T
