What is a Anemometer?

Anemometer is a measuring instrument that has both the functions of an anemometer and anemometer, and is used to observe the state of the wind because it can measure the wind speed and the wind direction at the same time. There are many types of anemometers, and there are three main types: cup type, windmill type, and ultrasonic wave type. There are 36 wind directions, and the average direction for 10 minutes or 2 minutes is displayed as the wind direction. The wind speed represents the distance traveled by the air per unit time, and this also displays the average value for 10 minutes or 2 minutes as the wind speed using a unit called knot. From large-scale high-precision observations to small-sized and portable ones, it supports a wide range of applications.

Application of Anemometer

In large-scale, high-precision observation applications, the wind direction and speed are extremely important as indicators for predicting the weather, because the movement of the atmosphere can be grasped by observing the state of the wind. By grasping the movement of clouds and the strength of the wind from the wind observation site, it is possible to predict disasters and weather, and from familiar information such as daily weather forecasts and pollen forecasts, strong winds and storms, etc. By issuing cautions and warnings about typhoons and waves, it helps prevent the spread of damage. In addition, since wind information is essential for the safe operation of ships and aircraft, wind direction anemometers are installed at airports and coastal areas to keep track of real-time wind information. Small, portable wind direction anemometers are used for the purpose of observing wind conditions in an indoor environment. Specifically, it is used for inspection and maintenance of equipment such as air conditioners and ducts, and for investigating the state of air circulation in clean rooms.
