Seasonal wind speed distribution analysis in west coast of Malaysia

Wind in Malaysia varies according to the Northeast and Southwest monsoon. The transition period of the two monsoons, April and October inter-monsoon also influence the wind in Malaysia. The determination of the fit wind speed distribution has become a vital process in wind energy estimation and coas...
