Estimação dos Coeficientes da Função Weibull para Análise dos Parâmetros Eólicos: Um Estudo de Caso em Macaé, RJ.

This paper aims to estimate the scale and shape parameters of the Weibull Probability Density Function (PDF) to analyze the wind distribution in the city of Macaé, RJ. The wind study covered the meteorological stations in the following locations: Glória, Estrada de Morro Grande, Miramar, Mirante da Lagoa, Parque Aeroporto, and Trapiche, considering different seasons of the year from autumn 2021 to summer 2022. After performing statistical analyses on the databases, the coefficients of the PDF were optimized to better fit the histograms columns, plotted individually for each region. Additionally, the research evaluated the seasonal behavior of each area. As a result, it was inferred which urban applications of wind resource exploitation can be recommended for each locality, based, among other factors, on the estimated wind power developed for an average wind turbine.
