- Abstract:

This study investigates the statistic distribution of hourly mean wind speed data recorded at west campus of Huafan University from 2002 to 2006. Weibull distribution and Rayleigh distribution are adopted to fit wind speed data. The parameters of these distribution were estimated by using method of moment and method of maximum likelihood. The results show that the statistical distribution of all hourly mean wind speed data is suitably described by the Weibull distribution and Rayleigh distribution. Furthermore, wind speed data are separated into summer parts (April to September) and winter parts (October to March). The data of two parts are more suitable described by the Weibull distribution. The parameters estimated by method of maximum likelihood are better for summer parts, and the parameters estimated by method of moment are better for winter parts.
