Overview - how to setup foxesΒΆ
Running a wind farm simulation with foxes
requires the following steps, usually reflected in a Python script, notebook or an input parameter file:
Optional: Create the so-called
model book
, which contains all selectable models. You can also choose to rely on pre-defined models and skip this step.Create ambient meteorological conditions, called
states
infoxes
terminologyCreate the
wind farm
, collecting all turbine informationCreate the
algorithm
with its parameters and model choicesRun the farm calculation via the algorithm
Optionally evaluate the flow field at arbitrary points of interest, also via the algorithm
Post-process the results, for example using the
foxes.output
package
The details will become clear in the sections on Models, Examples and Input parameter files.
