Wind Turbine Power Coefficient
An online wind turbine calculation software is useful, click on the image below. The image is not done by me, click on the image to link it with its source.
Example on calculating wind turbine energy, wind energy and wind turbine efficiency. image used for educational purposes not done by me.
What to Expect to Validate your Data
The researcher will have to look at the velocity values in the horizontal direction that resulted from the simulation. The second objective is the high pressure occurring before the turbine and low pressure after the turbine. The image is not done by me, click on the image to link it with its source.

Time Stepping for a Wind Turbine
You will need to know what is the required time for a full rotation of the turbine rotor then based on that you can think of how much detail you want to capture during one full rotation then how much generated data for each saved time step and is it nesecary for that detail.
Duration_of_One_Full_Rotation = This is Calculated by Researcher.
Number_of_Time_Steps = This is estiamted by how much storage capacity is availabel and what type of experimetal data is available.
Time_Step = This is the unknow value.
Number_of_Rotations = This is estiamted by how much storage capacity is availabel and what time of experimetal data is available, you can take its value as 1 initially.
Duration_of_Simulation=Number_of_Time_Steps*Time_Step*Number_of_Rotations
Duration_of_One_Full_Rotation = This is Calculated by Researcher.
Number_of_Time_Steps = This is estiamted by how much storage capacity is availabel and what type of experimetal data is available.
Time_Step = This is the unknow value.
Number_of_Rotations = This is estiamted by how much storage capacity is availabel and what time of experimetal data is available, you can take its value as 1 initially.
Duration_of_Simulation=Number_of_Time_Steps*Time_Step*Number_of_Rotations
