Unusual Wind Speed Pattern of Sitakunda, a Windy Coastal Location of Bangladesh
View Paper PDF
Abstract
New and distinct characteristics of wind properties of different locations were discovered during the analyses of wind data available from the Wind Energy Resource Mapping project for Bangladesh. Several researches have been carried out with these data and from their results, some irregularities (due to the country’s extreme features, such as: the longest land-sea interface, the highest population density, highly humid climate etc.) of earlier research could now be understandable. While searching for prospective windy sites of Bangladesh, it has been found that Sitakunda, a windy coastal location of the country have some notable wind speed characteristics. First of all, wind data of different coastal locations were analyzed to determine various statistical parameters like frequency distribution, duration distribution and cumulative distribution. During these analyses, an unusual wind characteristic at Sitakunda on September, 2006 ...
