Windpower¶
Wrapper for SAM Simulation Core model: cmod_windpower.cpp
Creating an Instance¶
There are three methods to create a new instance of a PySAM module. Using default
populates the newclass’ attributes with default values specific to a config
. Each technology-financialconfiguration corresponds to a SAM GUI configuration. Using new
creates an instance with empty attributes. The wrap
function allows compatibility with PySSC, for details, refer to PySSC.

Warning
Do not call PySSC.data_free on the ssc_data_t provided to
wrap
Functions¶
-
class
PySAM.Windpower.
Windpower
¶ This class contains all the variable information for running a simulation. Variables are grouped together in the subclasses as properties. If property assignments are the wrong type, an error is thrown.
-
assign
(dict) → None¶ Assign attributes from nested dictionary, except for Outputs
nested_dict = { 'Wind Resource File': { var: val, ...}, ...}
-
execute
(int verbosity) → None¶ Execute simulation with verbosity level 0 (default) or 1
-
export
() → dict¶ Export attributes into nested dictionary
