Design of an automatic weather station to record solar and wind variables

Abstract

The objective of the research was to design an automatic meteorological station to record the solar and wind variables. It was developed from a descriptive documentary methodology with a non-experimental design, which, in a first phase, allowed analyzing meteorological data in order to diagnose the need to have the design of a proposal for a meteorological station. It is observed that the radiation in this month ranged between 5,000 and 7,000 Wh / (m2-day), with some exceptions, even exceeding 8,000 Wh / (m2-day). It is noteworthy that there were days with very low solar radiation due to the rains and heavy cloud cover found this month. The automatic weather station designed, shows a great advantage over conventional weather stations; This can be used in areas with little accessibility or in the absence of a power grid.
