Abstract: | The wind speed distribution with height is analysed by using hourly data for a full year recorded at 6 levels of a 164 m tower at Nanjing. A statistical error analysis shows that power law and logarithmic law are best applicable when the wind is strong. For the height range from 16 to 164 m, the power law represents the actual speed distribution better than does the logarithmic law. |
