Environmental factors, global legislations and economic reasons force vehicle industry to produce more efficient systems. Displacement controlled hydraulic fan drive system is one of the energy efficient alternatives for stationary highway vehicles, construction machines and military vehicles that have moderate engine size and less benefit from ram air cooling. In this thesis study, hydraulic fan drive system of a military vehicle is investigated and a dynamic model of the system is developed. MATLAB/Simulink® software, a block diagram environment, is used for model based design and multidomain simulation of mechanical and hydraulic components. Beside the predefined blocks under Simulink® library, custom models are developed, i.e. variable displacement axial piston pump with swash plate dynamics, fan, compensator. In order to verify the developed model, simulation results are compared with experimental data (pressure, flow rate, engine and fan speeds). Then, by the help of the model, effect of orifice sizes on the system performance is investigated. Developed model can be used for deeper understanding behind the hydraulic fan drive system of the vehicle. In addition, if a modification in an existing system is to be made, effect of the alteration can be examined over the model in advance.

Parameterization of built environment for wind resource assessment
Sakçak, Şafak; Tanyer, Ali Murat; Pekeriçli, Mehmet Koray; Department of Building Science in Architecture (2018)
Use of wind power for energy generation in urban areas is gaining importance considering the energy consumption and environmental impact behaviors of built environments. Therefore, assessment of urban wind resource is crucial. The study of air flows in cities is also related to other concerns as natural ventilation, air contamination and pedestrian comfort. Two of primary research topics proposed in feasibility studies for urban wind energy are improvement on the understanding of urban wind flows with devel...
Preliminary design and construction of a prototype canola seed oilextraction machine
Sarı, Pelin; Gökler, Mustafa İlhan; Department of Mechanical Engineering (2006)
Growing energy demand in the world force people to investigate alternative energy sources. Unlike coal or other fossil fuels, renewable energy sources are promising for the future. Especially, seed oils are effectively used as energy sources such as fuel for diesel engines. The scope of this study is to develop an oil extraction machine specific to canola seed. In this study, seed oil extraction methods have been investigated and various alternatives for the extraction machine have been considered. For cont...
An Energy and Economic Comparison of Building Envelope Types in Ankara
Shorbagı, Mustafa Ibrahım; Çakmaklı, Ayşem Berrin (null; 2015-05-30)
One aim of sustainable design may be, “to protect important resources such as energy from depletion and the reduction of the release of poisonous gasses, such as CO2 , to the atmosphere”. For this purpose, buildings which are a major cause of energy resource wastage must be designed in such a way to avoid such energy losses. In developing countries like Turkey, where much energy is exported to satisfy her needs, necessary methods of energy reduction were required. Thus regulations such as the TS 825 (Turkis...
Literature review on BIM-based building energy performance optimization
Can, Esra; Akçamete Güngör, Aslı (İstanbul Teknik Üniversitesi; 2020-11-14)
Buildings comprise a large part of global energy consumption and make a significant contribution to overall CO2 emissions in the world. Therefore, increasing the energy efficiency of buildings becomes a priority to reduce these undesirable effects. Building energy performance assessments are complex multi-criteria problems as the energy performance is affected by many factors such as building orientation, envelope design, climate conditions, daylighting levels, and HVAC system usage schedules. This complica...
Optimum daily operation of a wind-hydro hybrid system
Ercan, Eray; Kentel Erdoğan, Elçin (2022-06-01)
© 2022 Elsevier LtdDue to the negative effects of fossil fuels on the environment and health, energy supply is shifting towards renewables. The integration of renewable energy systems is challenging due to the intermittent nature of renewables, however this can be mitigated through storage. Uncertainty in electricity prices in spot markets further complicates the operation of these systems. Pumped storage hydropower is currently the most viable form of large-scale energy storage, and operation of renewable ...
