Wind speed data for 30 locations in Nigeria were analysed. Annual mean wind speeds and power flux densities were determined to vary from 1.5 to 4.l m/s and 5.7 to 22.5 W/m 2, respectively. The mean maximum power extractable from two hypothetical aerogenerators were determined. The potential uses of

The potential of the development of water desalination using wind energy in Jordan was studied. Eleven wind solar sites were considered. The results show that these sites can be divided, in terms of the yearly total amount of desalinated water, into three categories. One is considered favourable, wh
An insight into how an animal gains and loses heat over its interface is made, using a theoretical approach and employing four major climatic parameters--solar radiation, temperature, humidity, and wind. Two different types of cattle (the Jersey and the Shorthorn) are employed although conclusions i
