EVALUATION OF WIND ENERGY POTENTIAL IN HAVZA-SAMSUN, TURKEY

Abstract

   In this study, the wind potential measurement of the defined region has been carried out by means of a wind tower installed in Havza–Samsun, Turkey. The analyzed wind data have been accumulated and registered from 2014 to 2015 dates in 10 min intervals through the tower of 80 m having three anemometers at 80 m, 78 m, and 57 m. Moreover, other air variables have been taken with the aid of temperature, humidity and pressure transmitters placed at 5 m and 6 m heights of the tower. According to the evaluations, the average wind speed at 80 m tower height has been calculated 4.9 m/s. Also, the average pressure value at 5 m tower height, the temperature value at 5 m tower height, and the humidity value at 6 m tower height have been defined 928.52 hPa, 12.61°C, and 72.14%, respectively. Depending on this data, the energy that can be produced is found in Watts/m² for heights of 30 m and 80 m. Finally, the dominant wind direction of the selected region has been determined as the North direction by means of two wind direction transmitters installed at 78 m and 28 m heights. According to the obtained values, it is determined that this selected area is not suitable for large wind turbine investments.

TÜRKİYE, SAMSUN-HAVZA RÜZGÂR ENERJİ POTANSİYELİ DEĞERLENDİRMESİ

Öz

   Bu çalışmada Türkiye, Samsun ili, Havza ilçesinde kurulan bir rüzgâr analiz kulesi ile bu bölgenin rüzgâr enerji potansiyelinin ölçümü yapılmıştır. Analiz edilen rüzgâr verileri, 2014–2015 tarihleri arasında yaklaşık 12 ay için 80 m yükseklikteki bir kulenin 80 m, 78 m, 57 m ve 30. m’lerindeki anemometreler yardımıyla 10 dk aralıklarla toplanmış ve kaydedilmiştir. Ayrıca kulenin 5 m ve 6 m yüksekliklerine yerleştirilen sıcaklık, nem ve basınç çeviricileri yardımıyla diğer hava değişkenleri de alınmıştır. Yapılan değerlendirmelere göre, 80 m kule yüksekliğindeki ortalama rüzgâr hızı 4,9 m/s, 5 m’deki ortalama basınç değeri 928,52 hPa ve 6 m’deki sıcaklık ve nem değerleri de sırasıyla 12,61°C ve %72,14 olarak hesaplanmıştır. Bu verilere bağlı olarak üretilebilecek enerjinin Watt/m² olarak değerleri 30 ve 80 m için bulunmuştur. Son olarak da, kulenin 78 m ve 28 m yüksekliklerine yerleştirilen rüzgâr yönü çeviricileri ile de hâkim rüzgâr yönü olarak Kuzey yönü belirlenmiştir. Elde edilen değerlere göre, bu seçilen alanın büyük rüzgâr türbini yatırımları için elverişsiz olduğu saptanmıştır.
