Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed Solution

STEP 0: Pre-Calculation Summary

Formula Used

Height z above Surface = 10/(Wind Speed at Height of 10 m/Wind Speed)^7
Z = 10/(V₁₀/U)^7
This formula uses 3 Variables

Variables Used

Height z above Surface - (Measured in Meter) - Height z above Surface where the Wind Speed is measured.
Wind Speed at Height of 10 m - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wind Speed at Height of 10 m is the ten-meter wind speed measured ten meters above the top of the datum of consideration.
Wind Speed - (Measured in Meter per Second) - Wind Speed is a fundamental atmospheric quantity caused by air moving from high to low pressure, usually due to changes in temperature.

STEP 1: Convert Input(s) to Base Unit

Wind Speed at Height of 10 m: 22 Meter per Second --> 22 Meter per Second No Conversion Required
Wind Speed: 4 Meter per Second --> 4 Meter per Second No Conversion Required

STEP 2: Evaluate Formula

Substituting Input Values in Formula

Z = 10/(V₁₀/U)^7 --> 10/(22/4)^7

Evaluating ... ...

Z = 6.56842391335305E-05

STEP 3: Convert Result to Output's Unit

6.56842391335305E-05 Meter --> No Conversion Required

FINAL ANSWER

6.56842391335305E-05 ≈ 6.6E-5 Meter <-- Height z above Surface

What is 10m wind?

Surface wind is the wind blowing near the Earth's surface. The wind 10m chart displays the modeled average wind vector in 10 m above the ground for every grid point of the model (ca. every 80 km). Generally the actual observed wind velocity at 10 m above ground is a little bit lower than the modeled one.

How to Calculate Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed?

Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed calculator uses Height z above Surface = 10/(Wind Speed at Height of 10 m/Wind Speed)^7 to calculate the Height z above Surface, The Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed formula is defined as a stretch above the surface at which standard reference wind Speed wind is measured. Height z above Surface is denoted by Z symbol.

How to calculate Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed using this online calculator? To use this online calculator for Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed, enter Wind Speed at Height of 10 m (V₁₀) & Wind Speed (U) and hit the calculate button. Here is how the Height z above Surface given Standard Reference Wind Speed calculation can be explained with given input values -> 6.6E-5 = 10/(22/4)^7.
