Sustainable development and the fight against climate change are now priorities in majority of countries. The contribution of renewable energies to these two ambitions has been proven. Wind being a renewable energy source, several works was carried out in this field for an effective exploitation of this resource. Thus, wind modeling using the Weibull distribution was of paramount importance. The objective of this study is to model the wind speed at Ntem, South Region of Cameroon, for good decision making on possible projects of electricity production from the wind and toward contribution to the sustainable development of rural areas in this locality. For this purpose, the average hourly wind speed data for the period of November 2012 to October 2014 provided by a station located at a height of 10 m in Ambam were used. The modeling of this wind speed by the Weibull distribution for determining the two function parameters k and C was carried out with four numerical methods: graphical method (GM), empirical method (EM), method of factor energy, and the moment method (MM). The EM presented a better performance than the other techniques. Moreover, the average density of wind energy based on the average cubic root of the cubes was estimated at 93.7628 kW/m2/year in 2013. This result presents Ambam as an unfavorable zone for wind power generation with fair wind characteristics. But it is very important to mention that, for a height of 10 m, this potential is not negligible in the Cameroonian context where domestic energy (lighting, telephone recharging, radio, television, etc.) is not yet available for most villages, located far from the national power grid.

通过喀麦隆南部地区安巴姆的风速和功率密度分析得出可持续能源

可持续发展和应对气候变化现在是大多数国家的优先事项。已经证明了可再生能源对这两个目标的贡献。风能是一种可再生能源,为了有效利用这种资源,在这一领域进行了几项工作。因此,使用威布尔分布进行风建模至关重要。这项研究的目的是对喀麦隆南部地区恩特姆的风速进行建模,以便对可能的风力发电项目做出正确的决策,并为该地区农村地区的可持续发展做出贡献。为此,使用了位于安巴姆(Ambam)高度10 m的站点提供的2012年11月至2014年10月的平均小时风速数据。ķC用四种数值方法进行:图形方法(GM),经验方法(EM),要素能量方法和矩量方法(MM)。EM表现出比其他技术更好的性能。此外,根据立方的平均立方根,2013年的风能平均密度估计为93.7628 kW / m 2 /年。这一结果表明,Ambam是具有公平风特征的风力发电的不利区域。但是必须要特别提到的是,对于高度为10 m的喀麦隆来说,这种潜力是微不足道的,因为在喀麦隆,大多数位于该地区的村庄还没有家庭能源(照明,电话充电,收音机,电视等)远离国家电网。
