calculates the estimated annual energy yield from a wind turbine based on wind speed data for each month of the year.
Estimating the annual energy production of a wind turbine using wind speed data for each month of the year. The wind speed data is provided as an array wind_speed_months, with each element representing the average wind speed for a specific month.
The hours_per_month variable is set to 720, assuming that there are 720 hours in each month.
The power curve parameters (cut_in_speed, rated_speed, and cut_out_speed) are the same as in the previous examples. These parameters define the range of wind speeds at which the wind turbine starts generating power (cut-in), operates at its rated capacity, and stops producing power (cut-out).
A loop is used to calculate the energy yield for each month. The power curve equation is applied to each month's wind speed, and the resulting power output is multiplied by the corresponding number of hours in the month to estimate the energy yield.
The code then sums up the monthly energy yields to obtain the total annual energy yield of the wind turbine.
The estimated annual energy yield is printed to the console using fprintf.
