Windfarm Operations and Maintenance cost-Benefit Analysis Tool

# WOMBAT: Winfarm Operations and Maintenance cost-Benefit Analysis Tool

This library provides a tool to simulate the operation and maintenance phase (O&M) of distributed, land-based, and offshore windfarms using a discrete event simultaion framework.

WOMBAT is written around the [Simpy](https://gitlab.com/team-simpy/simpy) framework for discrete event simulation framework. Additionally, this is supported using a flexible and modular object-oriented code base, which enables the modeling of arbitrarily large (or small) windfarms with as many or as few failure and maintenance tasks that can be encoded.

# Setup

## Requirements

• Python 3.7+

## Installation

Download the latest version of [Miniconda](<https://docs.conda.io/en/latest/miniconda.html>) for the appropriate OS. Follow the remaining [steps](<https://conda.io/projects/conda/en/latest/user-guide/install/index.html#regular-installation>) for the appropriate OS version.

Using conda, create a new virtual environment: `text $ conda create -n <environment_name> python=3.7 --no-default-packages $ conda activate <environment_name> $ conda install -c anaconda pip # to deactivate: conda deactivate `

Install it directly into an activated virtual environment:

`text $ git clone https://github.com/WISDEM/WOMBAT.git $ cd wombat $ python setup.py install # $ pip install wombat - coming soon! `

or if you will be contributing:

`text $ git clone https://github.com/WISDEM/WOMBAT.git $ cd wombat $ pip install -e '.[dev]' # Required for automatic code formatting! $ pre-commit install `

or for documentation:

`text $ git clone https://github.com/WISDEM/WOMBAT.git $ cd wombat $ pip install -e '.[docs]' ` # Usage

After installation, the package can imported:

`text $ python >>> import wombat >>> wombat.__version__ `
