🌬️ Wind and Solar Park: Hub Height, Wind Shear and a Hybrid Day (2D)

Side view of a wind turbine and a solar array through one 24 hour day, with the wind speed drawn at every height. Set the wind at 10 m, the shear exponent, hub height, rotor diameter, night-time wind swing and the solar array size and see why a taller hub pays back cubically, how the two sources fill each other in, and what the day energy is. Four in-page numerical checks compare the integrals and ratios with the formulas.
