We Developed an Interesting Power Measurement.
Published:
Updated:
We've been looking over the Atlantic Accumulated Cyclone Energy or ACE.
It seems a bit odd the measurement focuses on peak energy.
It's like having your electric bill based only on your peak energy usage.
That's absurd, energy providers wouldn't get much that way.
Is there another way to measure energy usage?
YEP, it is call power, or Watts.
It's the measurement of energy over time, or the amount of work over time, sometimes in units of kg m2 / s3 or J / s.
Funny thing about the ACE is the measurement leaves out the kg or mass and it's measured in kn2.
You can see the their equation at the link above.
OK, well, if that's good for them, it's good for us, we can do that, too.
Instead of using just the max velocity or peak energy of the cyclone, we used a measurement of the entire life of the cyclone and sum up all the power values.
The Accumulated Cyclone Power is measured in kn2 / h, square knots per hour.
Below are the chart and table for our rework.
If we Rank the top 10, it would be the following:
| Rank | Year | Total Power |
| 1 | 2005 | 7093.08 |
| 2 | 1887 | 6066.30 |

You'll notice that 1887 is ranked 2nd.
The following year was the Great Blizzard of 1888.
Keep that in mind.
Better get your hat and mittens ready.
Brrrr.....
