Weibull Wind Distribution: Mean Speed, Bin Probabilities & Hours
This lesson is part of the course
In this lesson
You describe the Hollow Ridge wind climate with a Weibull distribution: the mean wind speed from k and c, the probability and hours of every 1 m/s bin, and the hours at or above rated speed.
