  1. An instrument for measuring the speed of the wind, or of any current of gas


  1. a gauge for recording the speed and direction of wind
  2. An anemometer is a device for measuring wind speed, and is a common weather station instrument. The term is derived from the Greek word anemos, meaning wind. The first known description of an anemometer was given by Leon Battista Alberti in around 1450 .
  3. An instrument for measuring and recording the speed of the wind
  4. Measures the wind speed and transmits wind speed data to the controller.
  5. A device that measures wind speed.
  6. General name for instruments designed to measure windspeed.
  7. an instrument used to measure wind speed
  8. A sensor that measures wind speed. Cup, propeller, and sonic anemometers are available.
  9. A weather instrument that measures wind speed. The most widely used anemometer consists of three or four cups that spin according to the speed of the wind (which is most of the time in miles per hour). Sometimes, it is measured in knots (which is equal to 1.15 miles per hour).
  10. A device that reads air velocity such as a wind vane. In fan applications, it is usually a spinning-vane-type instrument used to read low velocities at registers and grills.
  11. tool meant to measure the wind strength. It can be useful to help you choose your kite size.
  12. A device to measure wind speed, either by horizontally rotating wind cups or a vertical propellor.
