%0 Journal Article %T Statistical Analysis of Wind Energy Density in the Babuburnu-£¿anakkale Region of Turkey %J - %D 2018 %X The total of feasible wind energy potential is estimated to be 47 GW in Turkey, and especially £¿anakkale, £¿zmir, Bal£¿kesir and Hatay basins are excellent wind resources for wind farm installations. Therefore, the capability of the wind power potential of Bababurnu-£¿anakkale province in the Marmara region of Turkey was reported in the context of this study. Parameters including the superior wind velocity direction, average wind velocity, Weibull and Rayleigh parameters, probability distribution, and wind power potential of this province were processed and analyzed in terms of annual, seasonal and monthly point of view. Finally, at a level of 10 m over the ground surface, the average wind velocity and average wind energy potential in this site were determined as 6.01 m/s and 257 W/m2, respectively according to the whole processed data. These data indicated that Bababurnu-£¿anakkale region has an acceptable wind energy potential, which is quite reasonable for planting wind power turbines %K Kurulu g¨¹£¿ %K R¨¹zgar h£¿z£¿ %K R¨¹zgar y£¿n¨¹ %K R¨¹zgar g¨¹c¨¹ %K G¨¹£¿ yo£¿unlu£¿u %K Weibull modeli %K Rayleigh modeli %K Frekans da£¿£¿l£¿m£¿ %K S¨¹rd¨¹r¨¹lebilir enerji %U http://dergipark.org.tr/cukurovaummfd/issue/36873/420385
