Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The application belongs to the technical field of wind speed and direction measurement, and particularly relates to a wind speed and direction measurement device based on Hall effect and electromagnetic induction. BACKGROUND

[0002] Existing wind speed and direction sensors mostly use mechanical wind wheels or capacitive sensing principles, but these sensors usually have problems such as low precision, easy damage, and poor environmental adaptability. In wind direction measurement, an optical encoder is used to measure the angle of a wind vane or a wind wheel in a wind direction instrument. By measuring the rotation angle of the wind vane (or the wind wheel), the direction of the wind can be calculated. Wind speed measurement is achieved by combining an optical encoder with the rotational speed of the wind wheel. The rotational speed of the wind wheel is proportional to the wind speed, and the optical encoder can be used to measure the rotational speed of the wind wheel to calculate the wind speed. Although the optical encoder technology has high anti-interference ability, under strong external light sources (such as direct sunlight or strong light pollution), it may affect the measurement accuracy. In order to overcome this, an optical isolation and filtering system usually needs to be designed. The optical encoder needs to be accurately calibrated during installation to ensure the accurate relative position of the optical sensor and the encoder, otherwise it may cause angle measurement errors.
