Whirlwind 1
Item number: WW1-00001 Price on request
Delivery time:Delivery time on request
Whirlwind 1 uses eye-safe infrared laser pulses to measure wind speed up to 85 m/s with 0.1 m/s resolution in beam direction. Profiles with measuring points at intervals of 15 m and distances of 60 m to approx. 400 m (with suitable visibility) are registered. Installation in the hub of wind turbines allows wind fields to be recorded across the cross-section of the rotor. Data quality is independent of daylight and is only slightly affected by rain.
