A vane anemometer combines a wind vane and an anemometer to measure wind speed and direction. It is commonly used in meteorology and can be mechanical or electronic. It is often mounted on roofs or towers and used for weather forecasting, research, and navigation. A vane anemometer is a type of instrument, commonly used in […]
The cup anemometer is a scientific instrument used to measure wind speed. It consists of three or four cups that catch and measure the wind. It cannot measure wind direction, but newer versions use different cup shapes to determine wind direction. The cup anemometer was invented by Irish scientist John Thomas Romney Robinson in the […]
A sonic anemometer uses ultrasonic transduction to measure wind speed, direction, temperature, and atmospheric changes. It can function in severe weather locations and has various models for specialized placement conditions. It has applications in weather monitoring, pollution control, building safety, wind farm planning, aviation meteorology, energy, disaster control, and civil engineering. A sonic anemometer is […]
