Abstract

Wind data of one year has been selected for the village Shahabad, district Thatta, Sindh. Five cumulative distribution functions name as Weibull, Gamma, Lognormal, Generalized Extreme Value and Rayleigh used. Five tests namely Root Mean Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE), Mean Square Error (MSE), Coefficient of Correlation (R) and Coefficient of Determination (D) used for the comparison of cumulative functions. Wind speed on yearly seasonal and hourly basis are evaluated. Six wind turbine models are selected for power generation capacity. Among all the distribution functions Weibull performs best and after Weibull at the second Rayleigh performs best. Maximum capacity factor among all turbines is of FWT 120/3000 with payback period of six years.
