WindspeedHours:
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
The hours that the wind is between v(k) +/- dV/2.
kRef and cRef are at hRef. h is the actual height of the hub.
The function adjusts v so that v(k+1) - v(k) = dV.
Type WindspeedHours for a demo in Lubbock Texas.
