dc.description.abstractIn this study, wind energy potential of Selcuk University campus region was investigated by means of wind data, which were obtained locally from a special observation station. The wind data were collected during the year 2005 at three different heights and were statistically analyzed with the help of MS office, Alwin, Wasp, and Witerm software. It is obtained that yearly averaged wind velocities of the region in 2005 at 10, 20, and 40 m of the mass height were found to be 5.36, 5.40, and 6.05 m/s, respectively. The power density of the region at 40 m was in the range of 260-308 W/m(2) with a medium level. For consideration of the calculation, wind speed frequency histogram, Rayleigh and Weibull distributions, wind direction, and temperature data were also used. The obtained results were used for evaluating electricity production of a 6 MW capacity wind farm composed of 1.0, 1.5, and 2.0 MW wind turbines. In addition, the planned wind farm was economically evaluated by means of the basic payback, the net present value, and the internal rate of return methods. The minimum basic payback period was found to be 6.44 years. The results were discussed and interpreted to encourage the investors for establishing wind farm in the region.en_US
