The wind typically follows known statistical distributions. This is important input for wind turbine power calculations.

The Weibull distribution is commonly used in meteorology, particularly when analyzing wind speeds. It's a continuous probability distribution that's often used to model the distribution of wind speeds over time at a specific location.

The Weibull distribution is characterized by two parameters: the shape parameter (often denoted as k) and the scale parameter (often denoted as c). These parameters determine the shape and scale of the distribution.

In the context of wind speed:

The shape parameter (k) affects the shape of the distribution curve. A larger
k value indicates a distribution with a sharper peak and heavier tails, meaning a higher probability of extreme wind speeds.
The scale parameter (c) affects the scale of the distribution along the wind speed axis. A larger c value means higher typical wind speeds.
The probability density function (PDF) of the Weibull distribution for wind speed is given in the video.

This distribution is useful for analyzing wind speed data because it can describe the likelihood of different wind speeds occurring. For example, it can help in estimating the probability of extreme wind events, which is crucial for applications such as designing buildings, assessing wind power potential, and understanding windrelated risks.
