1. Determine the wind speed at a height of 40 m over surface terrain with a few trees. If the
wind speed at a height of 10 m is known to be 6 m s-1.
2. Analysis of time series data for a given site has yielded an average velocity of 5.5 m
s-1. It is determined that a Rayleigh wind speed distribution gives a good fit to the
wind data. Based on a Rayleigh wind speed distribution, estimate the number of
hours that the wind speed will be between 8.0 and 9.0 m s-1 during the year.
3. The Weibull parameters c = 6 m s-1 and k = 1.6 are determined from annual wind
data.
ii) Estimate the number of hours per year that the wind speed will be between 7.0
and 7.5 m s-1 during the year.
