Descrição
Resumo:In this work it was proposed to predict high resolution wind fields in order to simulate the wind speed and direction variables in the Cerro Chato wind complex located in the city of Santana do Livramento / RS. For this, numerical weather forecasting techniques were used, using the \ textit {Weather Research and Forecasting} (WRF) model and a microscale mass and momentum conservation model, known as Windninja. In this study, the simulated data was compared with the observation data collected by the towers of the wind farm in question, using statistical procedures. The results presented by the Windninja simulation software were efficient, but not very effective.
