Abstract

An attempt is made to investigate in the field of renewable source of wind energy available in nature by estimating the wind power potential over Delhi and it~ effective utilisation for windmills for different speed ranges. Frequency and wind speed fine spectral analysis indicates that windmills designed for upper light wind range. (6 to 8 km/hr) can be effectively put into operation during the daytime for about 8-12 hrs., the time depending upon the month and the range of the wind speed at which the windmill can be operated. The max power potential over Delhi varies from 720 watt hr/m2/day during the months of March to min. of 130 watt hr/m2/day in the month of November.
