Abstract
The shape and scale parameters of a Weibull density distribution function are calculated for 10 locations in Saudi Arabia. The daily mean wind speed data from 1970 to mid-1990 are used for this purpose. It is found that the numerical values of the shape parameter vary between 1.7 and 2.7, whereas the value of the scale parameter is found to vary between 3 and 6. It is also concluded from this study that wind data are very well represented by the Weibull distribution function.
