Wind Energy Assessment at Bafoussam, Cameroon
Bibliographic record
Abstract
<p>Three-hourly wind speed data measured using the Beaufort scale at a height of 10m, from 6am to 6pm local time (5 periods per day), was obtained from the Bafoussam Airport. It was analyzed using the Weibull and Rayleigh probability density models and wind rose plots. It was determined that the lowest wind speeds (most calms) were observed during the first period (6am) and the highest at 3pm (fourth period). The very low morning wind speed adversely affected the daily mean wind speed. Better, but still poor, power density results were obtained at this fourth (3pm) period. The monthly and yearly mean speeds varied between 1.9 and 3.1m/s and with very low standard deviations. The wind rose plots also showed that all the significant winds fell in the first quadrant (NE) and predominantly on angle 10<sup>o</sup> with some discernibly on 20<sup>o</sup> and 30<sup>o</sup>, only. Three goodness-of-fit tests: the chi square, coefficient of determination or R<sup>2</sup> and root mean square error, showed the Weibull to be a better fit to the wind regime than the Rayleigh model. The shape parameters were always greater than the scale parameters. Results show that, using the Weibull parameters, the power density of Bafoussam falls in the category 1 of the wind energy resource group and hence is not a very good wind energy exploitable candidate.</p>

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
