  2. Station model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Station_model

    Winds are depicted as blowing from the direction the flags are facing. Therefore, a northeast wind will be depicted with a line extending from the cloud circle to the northeast, with flags indicating wind speed on the northeast end of this line. [5] Once plotted on a map, an analysis of isotachs (lines of equal wind speeds) can be accomplished ...

  3. Standard wind tunnel models - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Standard_wind_tunnel_models

    Results of wind tunnel tests of these models are generally published in the form of nondimensional aerodynamic coefficients (thus being made independent of model size) and made available to the wind-tunnel community, often in review reports containing inter-facility comparisons of data, [5] [8] [9] [10] discussing observed scatter of results ...

  4. Site analysis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Site_analysis

    There are numerous site elements related to the analysis during this phase. This is part of the analysis phase in site planning. Synthesis phase: From the analysis, a program is developed, which is part of the synthesis phase. The third step deals with schematic design of a site plan as well as a preliminary cost estimate for the site. Step ...

  5. Wind resource assessment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_resource_assessment

    Once the data set is in the database it can be analyzed and validated using tools built into the system or it can be exported for use in external wind data analysis software, wind flow modeling software, or wind farm modeling software. Many data logger manufacturers offer wind data management software that is compatible with their logger.

  6. Wind atlas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_atlas

    A wind atlas contains data on the wind speed and wind direction in a region. [1] These data include maps , but also time series or frequency distributions . A climatological wind atlas covers hourly averages at a standard height (10 meters) over even longer periods (30 years) but depending on the application there are variations in averaging ...

  8. Wind wave model - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wind_wave_model

    In fluid dynamics, wind wave modeling describes the effort to depict the sea state and predict the evolution of the energy of wind waves using numerical techniques.These simulations consider atmospheric wind forcing, nonlinear wave interactions, and frictional dissipation, and they output statistics describing wave heights, periods, and propagation directions for regional seas or global oceans.

  9. Trough (meteorology) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trough_(meteorology)

    A trough is an elongated area of lower air pressure. Since pressure is closely linked to wind, there are often changes in wind direction across a trough. If a trough forms in the mid-latitudes, a temperature difference at some distance between the two sides of the trough usually exists and the trough might become a weather front at some point.
