| Abstract | ||
| In the present study, the results of recorded observations for the wind speed at heights of 10 meter in the Sumawah site at the southern region of Iraq are presented in the form of tables, bar charts and graphs. The annual and monthly wind speeds and wind density are investigated. A statistical analyses based on the Weibull function were involved to determine the potential of wind energy for the location under study. The annual and monthly values for the shape and scale parameters were calculated from the available data. The results shows that the Weibull function gives a good fit to the recorded data and shows that this location have a moderate amount of wind power for power generation. | ||
