Deconstruct Wind - [source code]

Probe-specific statistics, per-hour values, a colored probe mesh and an inline legend from an annual wind field or Annual VAF object, without putting the full 8760-hour year on the canvas.

Input

Name Nickname Description Type
Wind Field W Annual field object from the VAF component — its Wind Speed output (m/s) or its Annual VAF output (dimensionless factors). One item, probes × hours. Generic Data
HOY Hour(s) of year (1-8760) to restrict to. Leave unconnected for the whole year. Statistics are reduced over exactly these hours, so a July-afternoon list gives July-afternoon wind — no re-solve needed. Integer
Statistic Stat Value used to color the probe mesh and scale the legend: the Mean, Min or Max of each probe's series over the selected hours. Defaults to Mean. Text
Radius Half-width of each colored square centered on a probe point. Number

Output

Name Nickname Description Type
Mean Avg Mean value per probe over the selected hours — the annual average when HOY is unconnected. Number
Min Lowest value per probe over the selected hours. Number
Max Highest value per probe over the selected hours. Number
Values V The field at each selected hour — one branch per HOY, each holding every probe's value {hoy}(probe count). Populated ONLY when HOY is connected; with HOY unconnected this would be the entire year, which is the tree this component exists to avoid. Number
Points P Probe positions carried inside the field (the VAF component's Points input). Point
Mesh Colored probe mesh for the selected statistic. Requires the field to carry probe positions (wire Points into the VAF component). Mesh
Range Minimum and maximum of the selected statistic — the range the Mesh was colored over. Wire it into the Wind Legend component's Range input so the legend labels exactly the scale this mesh uses. Domain
