Abstract

Of the different methods to estimate wind power density, the easiest one is by using energy pattern factor (EPF). This paper presents an investigation on EPF of 100 wind regimes in India and extracted a new expression of correlation between EPF and Weibull shape parameter, k. The new expression is compared with older ones available in literature and the higher accuracy of the new one is established. This paper also compares the methods of estimation of wind power density using EPF method and probability density function method. The application in which EPF method has advantage on the other has been identified.
