DESIGNING AND INSTALLATION OF LOW-COST OPTIMIZED WIND MONITORING SYSTEM

Saurav Gupta, Gagandeep Kaur

Abstract: Measurement of wind parameters is a necessity for chemicals industry. A big disaster can be prevented from happening if accurate wind monitoring system is installed in the industry. It is not easy to buy and install a wind monitoring system for every chemical industry from a vendor since its price is high and design varies from company to company and process to process. To make life easier, better and safer, a low cost optimized wind monitoring system has been designed and installed here with available resources. This project will help in measuring wind speed, wind direction and ambient air temperature to take protective measure right before the havoc, so that it can be prevented.
