The Wind Turbine tab in the Simulation Results window contains the following output variables.
Variable |
Description |
Total Rated Capacity |
The highest possible power amount from the wind turbine(s), in kW |
Mean Output |
The average power amount of the wind turbine over the year, in kW |
Capacity Factor |
The average power output of the wind turbine(s) divided by the total wind turbine capacity, in % |
Total Production |
The total power output of the wind turbine(s) over the year, in kWh/yr |
Minimum Output |
The minimum power output of the wind turbine over the year, in kW |
Maximum Output |
The maximum power output of the wind turbine over the year, in kW |
Wind Penetration |
The average power output of the wind turbine(s) divided by the average primary load, in % |
Hours of Operation |
The number of hours of the year during which the wind turbine output was greater than zero |
Levelized Cost |
The levelized cost of energy of the wind turbine(s), in $/kWh |
In the bottom half of the page a DMap appears showing the power output of the wind turbine(s) in each time step of the year.
