Problem Solutions
2-1. The Weibull-fitted wind speed frequency distributions shown in Figure
2.7 are for different locations with wind speeds measured at an elevation of
10 m. (30 ft.).
Using this information, determine the expected number of hours per year of
wind speeds between 18 and 20 mph at the Lubbock, Texas site, at the wind
turbine hub-height elevation of 20 m.

2-2. A wind turbine is proposed for a Denver, CO site. The hub height for
the wind turbine will be 100 ft. The wind turbine has a cut-out wind speed
of 30 mph (13.4 m/s).
(a) Using the Weibull-fitted wind speed frequency distributions shown in Fig-
ure 2.7, determine how many hours of 30 mph and higher wind speeds will
occur per year.
(b) How many hours in a 24 hour period does this correspond to?
(c) What does that say about the wind turbine operation?
