Abstract

In the report, the diurnal hourly dynamics of the mean and turbulent components of the kinetic energy flux density vector (the Umov vector) retrieved from minisodar measurements of the 3D wind vector and its 3D variance in the lower 200-meter layer of the atmosphere is analyzed. The results of this analysis can be used to elucidate time periods and altitude ranges of the maximal and minimal values of the Umov vector components as well as the prevailing directions of the total kinetic energy transfer, that is, to detect times and altitudes most and least favorable for flights of unmanned aerial vehicles, to estimate the effect of wind on high-rise buildings and bridges, and to predict the wind energy potential of wind turbines.
