Abstract
Ultrasonic anemometer is suitable of a variety of industries which have wind demand because of the small start of wind speed, no moving parts, not destroying the wind farm and high accuracy. However, ultrasound test procedures related to wind measurements has not formalized in china. This article selected speed test point drawing on the wind cup test procedures and tests each point at different angles in the HDF-720 low-speed wind tunnel loop. The test results found that the ultrasonic wind sensor can be installed in a large wind tunnel for testing, but in the same wind speed, results of the measurement are slightly different at different angles due to the existence of wind instrument sensor shadow effect. Moreover, for different wind speeds, the differences are also different. Combined with the above test analysis, we must correct the measurement following the ultrasonic sensor installation angle when using ultrasonic anemometer to measure wind speed in real time.
