More Information
Summary:A wind velocity sensor (11) comprises a lower platform (32) and an upper platform (34). Pillars (40) are positioned or connected between the upper platform (34) and the lower platform (32). Ultrasonic sensors (10) are secured to corresponding ones of the pillars (40). A lower guard member (38) extends outwardly from a reference ultrasonic sensor (10) by a radial distance greater than a radial separation between any pair of the ultrasonic sensors (10). L'invention concerne un capteur de vitesse du vent (11) qui comprend une plate-forme inférieure (32) et une plate-forme supérieure (34). Des piliers (40) sont positionnés ou reliés entre la plate-forme supérieure (34) et la plate-forme inférieure (32). Des capteurs à ultrasons (10) sont fixés à des piliers correspondants parmi les piliers (40). Un élément de protection inférieure (38) s'étend vers l'extérieur à partir d'un capteur à ultrasons de référence (10) par une distance radiale supérieure à une séparation radiale entre deux quelconques capteurs à ultrasons (10).
