Area

The partial Jensen wake model requires the overlap area of the rotor disc at the downwind location with the wake disc. This function computes it.

Provides a convenient data set, a set of helper functions, and a benchmark function for
economically (profit) driven wind farm layout optimization. This enables researchers in the field
of the NP-hard (non-deterministic polynomial-time hard) problem of wind farm layout optimization
to focus on their optimization methodology contribution and also provides a realistic benchmark
setting for comparability among contributions. See Croonenbroeck, Carsten & Hennecke, David (2020)
