I want to know how to get data like above using the FAST post processor(Mcrunch or Mlife).
Hope your advice.
Best Regards !
Merry Christmas!

Dear Ruiliang,

I’m not really sure what quantities are actually given in the table…local peaks, standard deviations? Regardless, I would expect that you can generate such a table by running simulations in multiple wind speed bins (e.g 6 seeds at 3, 5, 7, … 25 m/s) and then scaling each quantity by the wind speed probability distribution and hours per year and hours per lifetime.

Best regards,
