Wind Power API

healthy 3,758 Subscribers

Wind-turbine power maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The power endpoint applies the wind-power equation P = ½ · ρ · A · v³ · Cp: from the wind speed, the rotor (given as swept area, diameter or blade length) and an optional air density and power coefficient, it returns the total power in the wind, the Betz maximum (the theoretical 16/27 ≈ 59.3 % limit) and the power actually extracted at the chosen coefficient — in watts, kilowatts, megawatts and horsepower. The energy endpoint multiplies power by time and an optional capacity factor to give the energy produced in watt-, kilowatt- and megawatt-hours, taking the power directly or deriving it from the wind and rotor. The sweptarea endpoint is a geometry helper: swept area from a diameter, radius or blade length, plus the blade-tip speed and tip-speed ratio from an rpm. Wind speed accepts metres per second, km/h, mph or knots; air density defaults to 1.225 kg/m³ at sea level. Because power scales with the cube of wind speed and the square of rotor diameter, small changes move it a lot — the API shows every intermediate value. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for renewable-energy and engineering tools, education and physics apps, site-assessment and feasibility calculators, and STEM projects. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is wind-turbine power physics; for the Beaufort wind scale use a wind-scale API and for solar arrays use a solar API.

Hydropower API

Hydroelectric-power engineering maths as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The power endpoint computes the electrical power a hydro plant generates with P = ρ·g·Q·H·η, from the water flow rate, the net head (the effective drop), the overall turbine-generator efficiency (typically 0.80–0.92) and the water density, returning both the gross power at 100 % efficiency and the net electrical output. The sizing endpoint inverts the relation to size a scheme — given a target power it solves the flow rate needed at a known head, or the head needed at a known flow, Q = P/(ρ·g·H·η). The annual-energy endpoint computes the yearly energy from the rated power and a capacity factor (typically 0.3–0.6 for hydro, accounting for water availability and downtime), E = P × 8760 h × capacity factor, and an optional revenue from an electricity price. Flow is in cubic metres per second, head in metres, efficiency 0–1, power in watts, kilowatts and megawatts. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for renewable-energy, micro-hydro, civil-engineering, feasibility and sustainability app developers, run-of-river and reservoir tools, and energy education. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 3 endpoints. This is hydroelectric generation; for wind-turbine power use a wind-power API, for solar resource a solar API and for pump (energy-consuming) duty a pump API.

Solar Resource API

Solar irradiance and agroclimatology for any location on Earth — as an API over NASA POWER (Prediction Of Worldwide Energy Resources), derived from NASA satellite and reanalysis data. Get the solar resource needed to size and assess PV and CSP systems: global (GHI), direct-normal (DNI) and diffuse horizontal irradiance, clear-sky irradiance and the clearness index — either as long-term monthly climatology normals for quick site assessment, or as a daily time series for a date range (1981-present). The same call also serves meteorology — temperature, wind speed, relative humidity and precipitation — making it ideal for solar energy, agriculture, building-energy modelling and climate work. From cloudy Berlin to the Sahara, it turns a coordinate into bankable solar and climate data. A solar-resource / agroclimatology data source — distinct from PV-system energy simulation (PVGIS) and historical-weather records. Open data from NASA POWER.

Solar PV (PVGIS) API

Solar photovoltaic potential for any location on Earth, powered by the EU JRC PVGIS (Photovoltaic Geographical Information System). Estimate how much energy a solar PV system would produce at a given coordinate — yearly and month-by-month output in kWh, the in-plane solar irradiation and a breakdown of system losses (angle-of-incidence, spectral, temperature) — for any panel size, fixed tilt and azimuth; find the optimal panel tilt and orientation that maximises annual output; and read the long-term monthly global horizontal solar irradiation. Covers most of the world (excluding polar and open-ocean areas) from years of satellite-based solar data. Ideal for solar installers and calculators, renewable-energy planning, home-energy and roof-potential tools, and climate / sustainability apps. Open data from EU JRC PVGIS.

Center of Mass API

Centre-of-mass and barycentre mechanics as an API, computed locally and deterministically. The point-masses endpoint computes the centre of mass of a system of point masses in one, two or three dimensions, applying x_com = Σ(m_i·x_i)/Σm_i to each axis from a list of masses and their x (and optional y and z) coordinates — masses of 1, 2 and 3 at positions 0, 1 and 2 give a centre of mass at 1.333, and four equal masses at the corners of a square sit at its centre. The two-body endpoint computes the barycentre of two masses separated by a distance, r1 = d·m2/(m1+m2) from the first body, which always lies closer to the heavier one — for the Earth-Moon system the barycentre is about 4 670 km from Earth’s centre, still inside the planet. Lists may be passed as comma-separated values (masses=1,2,3&x=0,1,2) or as JSON arrays in a POST body, and units are consistent and unit-agnostic. Everything is computed locally and deterministically, so it is instant and private. Ideal for physics, engineering-statics, astronomy, robotics, game-physics and mechanics-education app developers, balance-point and barycentre tools, and simulation software. Pure local computation — no key, no third-party service, instant. Live, nothing stored. 2 endpoints. This is the centre of mass; for the rotational moment of inertia use a moment-of-inertia API.
