Dalga enerjisi çevreye zarar vermeyen temiz, doğal ve sürekli yenilenebilen enerji
çeşitlerinden birisidir. Türkiye’nin enerji ihtiyacı halen fosil yakıtlar kullanılarak
karşılanmaktadır. Ülke kaynakları göz önüne alındığında yenilenebilir enerji
kaynakları ülkemiz için enerji ihtiyacını karşılanmasında alternatif bir kaynak olarak
karşımıza çıkmaktadır. Üç tarafı denizlerle çevrili ülkemiz de dalga enerjisi, hızla
tükenmekte olan fosil yakıtlara alternatif oluşturabilecek konumdadır.
Dünya üzerinde okyanusa kıyısı olan ülkeler dalga enerjisinden faydalanmaktadır ve
yapılar daha çok okyanus kıyıları üzerinde yoğunlaşmaktadır. İç denizlerin
potansiyeli düşük olduğundan bu konu üzerinde fazla bir çalışma yapılmadığı
görülmektedir. Varolan sistemlerin genelinin yüksek dalga boylarında verimli
çalıştığı, gerek boyutları ve gerek maliyetleri ile iç denizlerde kullanılabilirliklerinin
düşük olduğu görülmüştür.
Yapılan bu deneysel çalışmada, dalgadan enerji üretimi için kullanılan mevcut
teknikler incelenmiş ve bu tekniklerin içerisinden kıyıda kullanılabilecek olanlar
belirlenerek, mevcut sistemlerden farklı bir tekniğe ve mekaniğe sahip, düşük dalga
yüksekliklerinde çalışabilen Karadeniz kıyı şeridine uygun dalga enerji üretim
sistemi üzerinde çalışılmıştır.
Dalganın inen ve çıkan yüzey hareketi (doğrusal hareket) uygun bir mekanizma ile
dairesel harekete çevriren yeni bir enerji üretim sistemi tasarlanarak imal edilmiştir.
Dalga potansiyelinden maksimum miktarda faydalanmayı amaçlayan bu sistem,
dalga boyu 10 cm den büyük olan denizlerde enerji üretebileceği ortaya konulmuştur.
Yapılan gözlemler ve denemeler neticesinde sistemin daha performanslı hale nasıl
getirileceği ile ilgili parametreler çıkartılmıştır. Ayrıca dünya üzerinde kullanılan
OWC sistemimin geometrik benzetim yöntemi ile prototipi hazırlanmış, kurulan
sistemimiz ile beraber çalıştırılarak enerji verimlilikleri karşılaştırılmıştır.,Wave energy is one of the harmless, clean, natural and continuous renewable energy
types. Turkey's energy needs are met by using fossil fuels. Considering country
resources, renewable energy sources are an alternative source for our country.
Surrounded by seas on three sides, our country is in a position to be an alternative to
fossil fuels with its wave energy. Oceanic countries benefit from wave energy and
the structures are concentrated on ocean shores. Since the potential of inland seas is
low, it is seen that there is not much work on this subject. It has been observed that
the existing systems work efficiently at high wavelengths and they have low usability
in inland seas due to their size and cost.
In this experimental study, the current techniques used for energy production from
the wave were examined and the ones that could be used on the shore were
determined.
Wave energy production system suitable for the Black Sea coastline, having a
different technique and mechanics than the existing systems and working at low
wave heights, has been studied. The up and down surface movement of the wave is
converted into a circular motion by the mechanism. A new energy generation system
is designed and manufactured. In this experimental study, the current techniques used
for energy production from the wave were examined and the ones that could be used
on the shore were determined. With this system, which aims to utilize the maximum
amount of wave potential, it is tried to be proved that energy production in the waters
having wavelength above 10 cm can be realized. As a result of the observations and
experiments, the parameters related to how to make the system more efficient were
extracted. In addition, the prototype of the OWC system, which is used in the world,
has been prepared with the geometric simulation method and the energy efficiencies
have been compared by working with our established system.
