The anemometer  is a meteorological device used to measure the wind speed and thus help in predicting the weather. It is also one of the basic instruments in the flight of aircraft heavier than air.


In meteorology, the anemometers of bowls or of pinwheels are used mainly, species of diminutive mill of three vanes with cups on which the force of the wind acts; the number of turns can be read directly on a counter or recorded on a paper strip (anemogram), in which case the device is called an anemograph or anemometer. Although there are also electronic type.


To measure the sudden changes in wind speed, especially in turbulence, the hot filament anemometer is used, which consists of electrically heated platinum or nickel wire: the effect of the wind has the effect of cooling it and thus varying its resistance ; therefore, the current through the wire is proportional to the wind speed.

shivansh00: well it's a nice explanation thanks for it
duragpalsingh: You're welcome. And thanks!
