Meso-Microscale Coupling (MMC)
Statistical series
Improve the accuracy of your wind resource assessment with Meteodyn WT software.
Meteodyn’s meso-micro-scale coupling (MMC) technology integrates regional atmospheric phenomena into microscale CFD simulations.
Generate a SAM file, which is only compatible with our Meteodyn WT software.
The MMC approach is generally recommended for wind farms:
▪ Covering a large area
▪ Located in coastal or mountainous areas
▪ Subject to significant diurnal cycles or unstable atmospheric conditions
