Fuzzy Inference About Wind Resources in Urban Environment

Abstract

Technological advances allow the use of small wind towers within urban areas. It is difficult to choose the best place to set up such facilities because wind regime in micro regions suffers many influences of the surrounding environment. A wind tower may be installed and will not work properly. A fuzzy inference system dealing with this issue needs to pick up the factors that most impact the wind regime in micro urban environment. Also it uses data from the wind regime of a larger region surrounding the site. The system outputs an adequacy rank for sitting the wind tower.
