Title: | The development of a solid state wind velocity and direction indicator, suitable for data logging | Authors: | Hibbert, Michael Patrick | Keywords: | Electrical engineering | Issue Date: | 1992 | Publisher: | Cape Technikon | Abstract: | This thesis describes the development of a free standing, maintenance free anemometer which has no rotating parts. The principle of operation is based on the \-vind drag/force around a hollow P.V.c. pipe. The aim is to demonstrate how the strain occurring in the P.V.C. pipe, due to wind drag/force acting on it, can generate an electrical signal which can be mathematically manipulated to determine wind velocity and wind bearing. | Description: | Thesis (Masters Diploma (Electrical Engineering)) -- Cape Technikon, Cape Town,1992 | URI: | http://hdl.handle.net/20.500.11838/1117 |
