Abstract :
The wind characteristics of coastal area are analyzed with the whole year observations of 2005 at a wind observation tower locating at Rudong County, Jiangsu Province, China. In this area both turbulence intensity and gust factor vary with time, height and wind speed. Gust factor and turbulence intensity share a strong linear relationship. Turbulence intensity is of medium-level at low levels and decrease with height. Results in this paper can help selection and design of wind farm, wind generator selecting and safe production.
