BATI ANADOLU RÜZGAR KARAKTERİSTİKLERİ ÜZERİNE YAPILAN ÇALIŞMALARIN DEĞERLENDİRİLMESİ

Öz

Türkiye coğrafik konumu nedeniyle farklı hava akımlarının etkisi altında kaldığından, rüzgar enerjisi potansiyeli oldukça yüksek olan bir ülkedir. Türkiye’de potansiyel rüzgar enerjisi alanları genel olarak, Batı Anadolu’nun kuzey, kuzeybatı kısımları ile Ege Denizi sahili boyunca uzanmaktadır. Bu bölgelerde rüzgar hızı çoğunlukla 3 m/s değerinin üzerinde olduğundan yüksek bir rüzgar enerji potansiyeline sahip olduğu anlaşılmaktadır. Bu nedenle pek çok araştırmacı, rüzgar enerjisi karakteristikleri çalışmalarında bu bölge üzerinde yoğunlaşmıştır. Bu çalışma, Batı Anadolu’da Weibull dağılım fonsiyonu üzerinde yapılan çalışmaları özetlemektedir.

EVALUATION OF THE STUDIES CARRIED OUT ON WIND CHARACTERISTICS OF THE WESTERN PART OF TURKEY

Öz

Since the geography of Turkey provides appropriate meteorological conditions for the wind energy generation, it is inevitable to support the wind energy initiatives. In general, potential wind energy areas in Turkey lie in the northwestern and northern parts and at locations along the Aegean Sea coast. These regions are highly suitable for the wind energy generation, since the wind speeds exceed 3 m/s in most of these areas. So, due to the western part of Turkey are highly suitable for wind energy applications, most of researchers have focused mainly on these areas to calculate wind characteristics. This study is aimed to summarize the studies carried out on the parameters of the Weibull distribution function in western part of Turkey.

Anahtar Kelimeler
