by K.S. Heck, H.M. Johlas, and M.F. Howland proposes a replacement to the cos^(Pp, Pt) approach to modeling the effect of yaw misalignment accounting for changes in axial induction. Propose to implement in FLORIS.
Note this implementation will take the simplifying assumption that thrust is not being actively controlled to optimize against yaw, which is currently typical of wake steering, but leaves open future opportunities to optimized thurst.
Proposed solution
Add the new model into turbine.py, and configure it so that it works with the yaw_effective_velocity approach to ensure consistency of above rated conditions.
Pushing to v4.1, in our current thinking (@misi9170 double checking) v4.0 provides the framework / template and then this specific implementation is added in 4.1
