Abstract :

According to geographical positions, Iran regularly is affected by different climate systems in warm and cold seasons. In different seasons, according to combination of atmospheric pressure models and topography, the south seashore of Caspian Sea is affected by local stiff wind. Sefidrood Valley is contact canal between Caspian Sea in north and the lands of Central of Iran in south. The drop between these two areas, airways and natural characteristics of Iran, has caused a verity of climate. These antitheses create the different models of atmospheric pressure in different seasons of the year. Iran's local winds blow due to different climate conditions. Local manjil wind with a very high speed and unique conditions, exists during hot period of the year, and is very proper to research on, due to its applicability and potentiality; it can be used for generating energy and constructing wind power plant. In this essay, wind factor has been studied, and on the basis of recorded data of Iran renewable energy Organization and METEOROLOGY dept, topography element in wind creation and changes considering wind speed along Sefidrood valley in station have been studied, and on the basis of applicability view, the possibility of wind sour usage and suitable places for installing wind turbines are recognized.
