Abstract:This study presents investigation and assessment of wind characteristics and wind energy potential for four sites at the Jordanian southern region (Hareer, Ma'an, Aqaba and Fujaij). Based on the available measured data sources, the data were analyzed using hourly and mean monthly WS (wind speed) data at different heights, using a two-parameter probability distribution of Weibull function. The recognized monthly and yearly Weibull functions were considered for the second analysis step. The wind potential energy… Show more
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
