Wind Shear Profile Calculator

Estimate wind speed at any height using the power law or logarithmic model. Used by wind energy engineers and meteorologists to extrapolate anemometer readings to turbine hub height.

Wind Energy

Wind Energy Density Calculator

Compute the wind power flux (watts per square meter) available at a site for a given wind speed and air density. This is the gross resource: the energy passing through every square meter of rotor area before any turbine extracts it.
