mosaik-wind 0.1.0

Simulator for Wind Turbines in mosaik

This program allows to simulate wind-turbines inside mosaik. Original from Fernando Penaherrera, modified by Christoph Stucke and adapted into the mosaik library by Malte Trauernicht.

Installation

• To use this project, you have to install at least version 3.2.0 of mosaik

• It is recommended, to use the Mosaik-CSV Library to import wind data

You can install this project through pip with the following command:

pip install mosaik-wind

How to Use

Specify simulators configurations within your scenario script:

sim_config = {
    'CSV': {
        'python': 'mosaik_csv:CSV',
    },
    'Wind': {
        'python': 'mosaik_components.wind:Simulator'
    },
    ...
}

Initialize the wind- and csv-simulator:

windData = world.start("CSV",
                   sim_start='YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss',
                   datafile='path/to/wind/data.csv')

wind_simulator = world.start('Wind',
                             power_curve_csv='path/to/power_curve/data.csv',
                             step_size=60000
                             gen_neg=True)

Instantiate model entities:

wind_speed = windData.Wind()
wind_sim_model = wind_simulator.WT()

Connect wind- with csv-simulator:

world.connect(wind_speed, wind_sim_model, 'wind_speed')

CSV-Formatting

For the simulator to work correctly, both .csv files have to be specifically formatted!

wind-data

The wind_data.csv is formatted accordingly to the conventions of the mosaik_csv simulator:

Wind
Date,wind_speed
YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss,v1
YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss,v2
...

• Each entry in the .csv needs a Date in the YYYY-MM-DD HH:mm:ss format and a wind_speed value v, measured in meters per second.

power-curve

The power_curve.csv does not need the formatting, of the mosaik_csv simulator:

wind_speed,power_factor
a1,b1
a2,b2
...

• The Entries for each data point require the wind_speed a in the Beaufort wind force scale, as well as a corresponding power-factor b in megawatt.
