Ultrasonic wind sensor

Ultrasonic Wind Speed and Direction Sensor Product Introduction:

The ultrasonic wind speed and wind direction sensor is a mini fully digital sensor, highly integrated ultrasonic wind speed and wind direction sensor, small size, high integration, light weight, strong and durable;

The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor employ a non-contact measurement principle. It emits and receives ultrasonic waves to detect the speed and direction of the wind. The sensor typically consists of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter emits ultrasonic waves, while the receiver detects the reflected waves and calculates the wind speed and direction. This sensor is characterized by high precision, fast response, and stable reliability.

This product does not have any moving parts, and does not require on-site maintenance and calibration. It can accurately and quickly detect the wind speed and wind direction values in the on-site environment. The high-strength structure design can accurately detect in harsh climate environments, and can be widely used in agriculture, meteorology, environment , environmental protection, transportation, smart city, industrial testing and other fields.

Ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor working principle:

The operating principle of ultrasonic wind sensors is based on the properties of ultrasonic waves travelling through the air. Ultrasound is a sound with a frequency higher than the range of human hearing and has a high degree of penetration and directionality.

Ultrasonic wind sensors usually consist of a transmitter and a receiver. The transmitter emits ultrasonic pulses of a certain frequency, which are carried and scattered by the wind. The receiver receives the scattered ultrasonic waves and converts them into electrical signals that are sent to a signal processor for processing.

When measuring wind speed, the ultrasonic wind sensor measures the time difference between the propagation of the ultrasonic waves. When an ultrasonic pulse is emitted, it travels in the direction of the wind, which changes the speed of the ultrasonic waves. After the receiver receives the scattered ultrasound waves, the signal processor calculates the wind speed based on the propagation time difference.

Ultrasonic wind sensors utilise the directionality of ultrasound waves when measuring wind direction. The distance between the transmitter and receiver is fixed, and when an ultrasonic pulse is emitted, the wind deflects the direction of propagation of the ultrasonic waves. The receiver picks up the scattered back ultrasound and determines the direction of the wind based on the strength of the received signal.

In addition, ultrasonic wind sensors utilise the Doppler effect. As the transmitter and receiver move closer or further away relative to a moving target, the wavelengths received change. Using this phenomenon, ultrasonic wind sensors can further accurately measure wind speed and direction.

The ultrasonic wind speed and direction sensor is an advanced sensor device used to measure wind speed and direction. It utilizes ultrasonic wave technology to continuously monitor the movement of air and provide accurate measurements of wind speed and direction.

Ultrasonic wind sensors have a wide range of application scenarios, mainly including the following aspects:

Meteorological monitoring: ultrasonic wind sensors can real-time monitoring of the environment of the wind speed, wind direction, air pressure, temperature, humidity and other meteorological elements, for the production of weather forecasts, climate research in-depth as well as disaster prediction and other fields to provide relevant meteorological data support.

Energy development: in the field of energy development, ultrasonic wind sensors can not only be used in energy development assessment, but also in energy development site selection, energy development operations and other areas of use. For example, ultrasonic wind speed and direction meter can be used in the development of wind energy resources, real-time monitoring of environmental wind speed, wind direction elements, for wind energy resources assessment to provide detailed wind speed and direction data.

Urban management: the use of meteorological instruments in different areas of the city, to help the relevant personnel to understand the meteorological environment of the urban area, not only conducive to the establishment of a regional meteorological database, to promote the study of urban climate change, but also help to optimise the management of the city.

Ecological construction: In the field of ecological construction, ultrasonic wind sensors can automatically monitor PM2.5, PM10, wind speed, wind direction and other relevant elements in the environment in real time, providing refined data support for the analysis and evaluation of the quality of urban ecological environment. At the same time, it also provides meteorological guarantee services for the promotion of ecological construction.

Agriculture: in the field of agricultural production, meteorological conditions are closely related to agricultural production, timely access to environmental humidity, wind speed, carbon dioxide, light and other relevant parameters, is conducive to helping agricultural practitioners to scientifically adjust the production schedule, and constantly improve the level of refinement of the management of agricultural affairs, and promote the rapid development of modern agriculture.

In general, ultrasonic wind sensors are widely used in various fields, providing people with accurate wind speed and direction data, helping people better understand the weather conditions and respond to different weather conditions.
