This PR has the routines to compute the power output for all wind models. Fig. 1 show the idealized run (inflow of 10 m/s at 45 deg to the horinzontal) hub-height horizontal velocity contours for all the wind models at
t=1 hr. The total power output is shown in Fig. 2.The simple and general actuator disk models are within 3% of each other.
The Fitch model is about 5-10% less compared to the actuator disk models, and EWP is 5-10% higher compared to actuator disk models.
From the lower resolution of the mesoscale models (500 m in the horizontal compared to 20 m for the actuator disks), such discrepancies are expected.
