Create a wind farm

// Create Wind Farm
WindFarm myFarm = new WindFarm("My Farm");

// Set Wind Farm options
myFarm.IsNeighbour = false;
myFarm.ExcludeFromCalculation = false;

// Add farm to workbook
Workbook.WindFarms.Add(myFarm);

Load a TRBX file

// Create a turbine type from a trbx file. Requires full path
TurbineType turbineType = new TurbineType(
    @"C:\TestData\Generic, 1.5 MW, 
       1.5 MW, Rot 70 m, H 80 m, Air 1.225, DB 97.1, PC Man-None.trbx");

// Add the turbine type to the workbook
Workbook.TurbineTypes.Add(turbineType);

Create a turbine

// Need an existing turbine type
TurbineType turbineType = Workbook.TurbineTypes["Generic Turbine 1.5MW"];

// Location of turbine
Location location = new Location(305000, 6674550);

// Create turbine
Turbine turbine = new Turbine(
    "Turbine 1", 
    location, 
    turbineType);

// Add turbine to workbook. Turbine needs to be added to existing wind farm
Workbook.WindFarms["My Farm"].Turbines.Add(turbine);

Loading WOT file

// Loading a wot file using current workbook projection. Requires full path
Toolbox.ImportTurbines(
    @"C:\TestData\turbines.wot",
    Workbook.Geography.Projection);

Number of turbines in the workbook

// Find the number of turbines in the workbook
int numberOfTurbines = Workbook.Turbines.Count;

Hub height of a turbine

// I want the hub height of turbine with name "A1"
Turbine t = Workbook.Turbines["A1"];
double hubHeight = t.HubHeightLocation.HeightAboveGround;

Get the first turbine type

// Will return the first turbine type in the list or null if the list is empty.
TurbineType turbineType = Workbook.TurbineTypes.FirstOrDefault();
