What is an Anemometer?
An anemometer is an instrument that measures air velocity. There are many types of it, and the most commonly used one in meteorological stations is the wind cup anemometer, which consists of three parabolic empty cups fixed on the bracket at 120° to each other to form the sensing part, and the concave surfaces of the empty cups are all in one direction. The entire sensing part is installed on a vertical rotating shaft, and under the action of wind force, the wind cup rotates around the rotating shaft at a speed proportional to the wind speed. Next, we will introduce you to the knowledge of anemometer.
