Question

A met mast installed at a potential wind farm site recorded wind speeds at elevations of 10m, 25m, 40m and 60m over 10 second intervals for a period of 12 months. After analysing the data, annual average velocities of 5.5m/s, 6.3m/s, 7.0m/s and 7.5m/s were obtained at each height respectively. Use this information to identify a suitable scaling parameter to predict the velocity at hub height. Comment on the likely type of terrain topology at this site.
