Analysis of Wind Data Collected from 15 Stations in Thailand

Abstract

The aim of this research is to study the wind speed, wind direction and the temperature of 15 stations of Thailand at 5 levels from 16 November 2019 - 13 February 2020. WAsP application is used in this research to calculate the two parameters Weibull distribution namely K shape and C scale. Furthermore, maximum and minimum wind speed is recorded. Data from Nakhon Si Thammarat shows the maximum mean wind speed 5.02 m/s. and Nan shows the minimum mean wind speed 0.8 m/s. Additionally, the prominent wind direction of every station is observed as well. Main wind direction for Nakhon Si Thammarat is from (Southwest). These results facilitate for the further research on wind characteristic feasible for small wind farm by increasing the timeline of data recorded.
