Statistical distributions of wind parameters at Sydney, Australia

  • Morgan, Vincent T.

Abstract

The characteristics of the wind at 10 m height were studied over a period of 32 months. The sampling interval was 20 ms and the averaging time was 10 min. Probability density functions are given for the speed, direction, inclination and intensity of turbulence of the wind. Frequency contour plots are given for wind speed vs solar time, wind speed vs wind direction, wind speed vs global solar irradiance and wind speed vs the intensity of turbulence of the wind. Differences between the results for day and night and between various seasons are examined.
