The Distribution of Minimizing Maximum Entropy: Alternative to Weibull distribution for wind speed
نویسندگان
چکیده
In the present study, we have constructed MinMaxEnt distribution alternative to the Weibull distribution for the wind speed. MinMaxEnt distribution minimizes the special maximum entropy functional in the concrete set of moment functions, therefore, maximizes the amount of information generated by the given random sample. MinMaxEnt distribution of wind speed data measured in Eskisehir is also obtained and compared with the Weibull distribution by using various statistical criterias. Consequently, it is determined that MinMaxEnt distributions is more convenient for wind speed distributions, compared to the Weibull which is widely used in wind studies.

Abstract. Wind as a resource of renewable energy has obtained an important share of the energy market already. Therefore simulation and prediction of wind speeds is essential for both, for engineers and energy traders. In this paper we analyze the surface wind speed data from three prototypic locations: coastal region (Rotterdam), undulating forest landscape few 100 m above sea level(Kassel), ...

Wind speed is the most important parameter in the design and study of the environmental impact assessment. The wind speed determines the concentration of any toxic pollutant released from any chemical industry. As the wind speed increases the concentration of the toxic pollutant at any location in the environment at any instant of time decreases. It is also known that as the wind speed increase...
