Bibliometric Analysis of Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) on Hydraulic Energy

Abstract

Hydroelectric energy has various potential applications for future energy production and it is among the most efficient method to produce energy. In this study, literature data were analyzed with bibliometric methods. Bibliometric analysis is an efficient analysis method used to understand scientific communication, trends, impacts and interactions between research fields. The data used for the analysis were accessed from the WoS database. The article examined research articles published on hydraulic energy and CFD (computational fluid dynamics). As a result of the search conducted between 2000-2024 with the terms hydraulic energy and computational fluid dynamics, 214 documents were obtained. In this study, hydraulic energy was examined with bibliometric analysis and measures to be taken on the subject, comments, suggestions and research were summarized. The results can help and guide future research on the integration of hydraulic energy and related areas.
