windspeed_log_law(z, a, b, c)[source]

Windspeed log profile.

Parameters:
  • z (float) – Height above ground in meters

  • a (float) – Proportional to friction velocity

  • b (float) – Related to zero-plane displacement in meters (height above the ground at which zero mean wind speed is achieved as a result of flow obstacles such as trees or buildings)

  • c (float) – Proportional to stability term.

Returns:

ws (float) – Value of windspeed at a given height.
