• Description:
  The following paper covers a method for wind turbine selection with a horizontal axis of rotation basing on real in-field measurements of wind conditions. The basic meteorological properties and characteristics obtained during measurement campaigns using necessary equipment as well as the used methodology are vital for successful investment in wind farm. The main goal of in-field investigation is to collect meteorological data using a measurement mast installed at the possible future wind farm location. The conducted measurement campaign provided wind directions, velocities and wind blast parameters. The measurements were conducted in the northern Poland using measuring system installed on 100 meter high mast. The system was equipped with all devices necessary to measure and record the basic wind parameters. The reliability of measurements was verified using statistical data for the Weitbull distribution and the wind rose. In this way, the energy potential of raw air stream that could possibly drive a wind turbine was determined. Among 6 pre-selected wind turbine types, the optimal one for a given location was proposed.
