Feature or improvement description
This pull request addresses issue #235 by adding functions
set_wd_by_upstream_turbinesandset_wd_by_upstream_turbines_in_radiusto thedataframe_manipulationsmodule. The reason for these functions is that wind directions measured by waked turbines can contain biases due to wake effects. Therefore, it could be advantageous to only use unwaked turbines to estimate the wind direction. These functions first use the average wind direction over all turbines to identify the unwaked turbines. Then the unwaked turbines (or unwaked turbines within the specified radius forset_wd_by_upstream_turbines_in_radius) are used to compute the final wind direction signal.Related issue, if one exists
