Model and analysis of wind speed profile using artificial neural network - Feasibility study in Peninsular Malaysia

Accurate modeling of wind speed profile is crucial as the wind speed dynamics are non-deterministic,having chaotic behavior and highly nonlinear in nature. therefore,obtaining mathematical model of such wind speed profile is rather difficult and vague. in this brief manuscript,the wind speed distribution in peninsular malaysia is modeled via the real-time wind data obtained from the malaysian meteorological services (mms). artificial neural network (ann) has been exploited to train the data such that the exact model of wind speed can be identified. the induced wind speed model worthwhile for control engineers to develop control apparatus for wind turbine systems at the selected area of studies. with the wind speed distribution profile,turbine output power can be analyzed and were discussed thoroughly. © 2015 penerbit utm press. all rights reserved.
