Abstract

In this study, medium capacity hydroelectric power plant (HPP) class was investigated and Yumrutepe HPP case was studied in this power plant class. For this purpose, the effects of parameters, such as energy generation realized of Yumrutepe hydroelectric power plant, monthly average partial pressure, temperature, relative humidity, rainfall and the mass flow rate of water passing through turbines, on the efficiency and capacity factor of the Hydroelectric power plant was calculated between 2018-2019 years. The data produced by these parameters were compared with the data in the feasibility study of the Yumrutepe hydroelectric power plant and investigated. These parameters were found to be very effective, and according to these results the highest real energy generation was achieved in March with 5932 MW and the lowest actual energy generation was in September with 782 MW. When the efficiency of energy generation is analyzed, it is calculated that the most energy generation is in December, not in March in 2018. Thus, it was concluded that high energy generation in the hydroelectric power plant generally does not create much efficiency. It was found that the capacity factor, which is known to decrease the energy generation cost per KWh with the increase, has the highest value in March with 55% and the lowest in September with 7%. Thus, it has been proved that energy factor and change of capacity factor is directly proportional.

Abstract

Bu çalışmada, Orta kapasiteli Hidroelektrik santral (HES) sınıfında inceleme yapılmış olup bu santral sınıfında yer alan Yumrutepe HES örneği üzerinde çalışıldı. Bu amaçla, 2018-2019 yılları arasında Yumrutepe hidroelektrik santralinin gerçekleşen enerji üretimi, aylık ortalama aktüel basınç, sıcaklık, nispi nem, yağış miktarı ve türbinlerden geçen debi miktarı gibi parametrelerin bu hidroelektrik santralin üzerindeki üretimine etkileri, verimliliği ve kapasite faktörünün hesaplanması yapıldı. Kullanılan bu parametreler yardımıyla üretilen veriler Yumrutepe hidroelektrik santralin fizibilite raporundaki veriler ile karşılaştırılarak incelendi. Söz konusu parametrelerin oldukça etkili olduğu görülmüş olup ve bu sonuçlara göre en yüksek gerçekleşen enerji üretimi 5932 MWh ile Mart ayında ve en düşük 782MWh ile Eylül ayında gerçekleşti. Enerji üretiminin verimliliğine bakıldığında 2018 yılı içerisinde en fazla üretimin olduğu Mart ayında değil Aralık ayında olduğu hesaplandı. Bu sonuca göre, HES’te enerji üretiminin fazla olmasının çok verimlilik oluşturmadığı sonucuna varıldı. Artışı ile KWh başına üretim maliyetini düşürdüğü bilinen kapasite faktörünün en yüksek değeri %55 ile Mart ayında aldığı ve en düşük %7 ile Eylül ayında olduğu yapılan hesaplamalar sonucu bulundu. Böylece enerji üretimi ile kapasite faktörü değişiminin doğru orantılı olduğu ispatlandı.
