It isnt, for deflection angles b less than 90o, Cvane should be greater than 1.0, while for angles greater than 90o, it should be less than 1. Alot of times it is less then one because it is the ratio between the actual force and ideal force.

Factual/Fideal. Since friction acts on the actual force, it is going to be less then the ideal force, resulting in a number lower than one.

The vane coefficient is always less than 1 because it represents the ratio of actual power produced by a turbine to the ideal power that could be produced under perfect conditions. Since no turbine operates perfectly due to losses from friction, heat, and other inefficiencies, the vane coefficient is always less than 1.

How does a wind vane tells wind direction?

A wind vane is a weather vane that pivots on a central axis. The tail of the wind vane is larger than the head, causing it to point in the direction the wind is coming from. Wind direction is determined by observing which way the wind vane is pointing.
