how to calculate the average daily capacity factor using weibull distribution in matlab

To calculate the average daily capacity factor using the Weibull distribution in MATLAB, you can follow these steps:

  1. Generate a set of random numbers from the Weibull distribution. The Weibull distribution is defined by two parameters, the shape parameter (k) and the scale parameter (lambda). You need to specify these parameters based on your specific problem.

    main.m
    % Define shape parameter (k) and scale parameter (lambda)
    k = 2; % shape parameter
    lambda = 5; % scale parameter
    
    % Generate random numbers from Weibull distribution
    numSamples = 365; % number of samples to generate (for one year)
    capacityFactor = wblrnd(lambda, k, numSamples, 1);

  2. Calculate the average of the generated random numbers, which represents the average daily capacity factor.

    main.m
    averageCapacityFactor = mean(capacityFactor);
    
    46 chars
    2 lines

The averageCapacityFactor variable will contain the average daily capacity factor calculated using the Weibull distribution.

Please note that the Weibull distribution assumes that the capacity factor follows a specific shape and scale, which may or may not be appropriate for your specific problem. Also, make sure to adjust the parameters k and lambda based on your requirements.

Remember to replace k and lambda with your actual values when implementing this code.

I hope this helps!
