Conference Object Flow Structure in a Mixing Layer Developing Over Flat Bed at High Reynolds Numbers(Iahr-int Assoc Hydro-environment Engineering Research, 2015) Kirkil, GokhanResults of a high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel with a flat bed at a high Reynolds number (ReD= 160,000). The influence of Reynolds number on the development of the mixing layer as well as the vertical nonuniformity in the mixing layer structure is discussed. The numerical results show that as Reynolds number increases, the mixing layer development ceases earlier. Mixing layer growth rate and its change in the vertical direction at ReD= 160,000 are compared with experiments and a simulation at ReD= 16,000. Passive scalar is introduced at the tip of the splitter plate close to the free surface to estimate the size of the mixing structures based on mass transport. The effect of the Reynolds number on the shift of the centerline of the mixing layer is quantified.Conference Object Flow Structure in a Mixing Layer Developing Over Flat Bed at High Reynolds Numbers(Crc Press-Balkema, 2016) Kirkil, G.Results of a high resolution Detached Eddy Simulation (DES) are used to characterize the evolution of a shallow mixing layer developing between two parallel streams in a long open channel with a flat bed at a high Reynolds number (Re-D = 160,000). The influence of Reynolds number on the development of the mixing layer as well as the vertical non-uniformity in the mixing layer structure is discussed. The numerical results show that as Reynolds number increases, the mixing layer grows rapidly but also stabilizes more quickly. The shift of the centerline of the mixing layer is toward the low-speed side is less for high Reynolds number simulation than low Reynolds number simulation. Mixing layer growth rate and its change in the vertical direction are compared with experiments and a simulation at Re-D = 16,000. Passive scalar is introduced at the tip of the splitter plate close to the free surface to estimate the size of the mixing structures based on mass transport.Article Citation - WoS: 15Citation - Scopus: 23Students' Web-Based Activities Moderate the Effect of Human-Computer Factors on Their E-Learning Acceptance and Success During Covid-19 Pandemic(Taylor & Francis Inc, 2022) AL-Sayid, Fareed; Kirkil, GokhanThe purpose of this study is to investigate if students' activities on systems web-based moderate the effect of human-computer interaction (HCI) factors on ease of use and usefulness of e-learning and their success (SS) at the time of the COVID-19 pandemic. To answer the questions that addressed the relationship between HCI, e-learning acceptance, and SS, the researcher surveyed 103 students from Kadir Has University whose grade and activity logs were accessible. The survey was related to their perceived course webpage design, system and content quality, interactivity, usability and functionality, and self-assessment. The results show that most of the hypotheses of this study have been proven, a comprehensive conceptual model was developed, and the student grades in the online courses improved their GPA. The findings further reveal that students' activities moderate the effects of course environment and content quality on perceived usefulness and the effect of the course evaluation' system on perceived ease of use, where the changes in R-2 ranged between 0.041 and 0.074. That means including logs as a moderator would increase the explanatory power of the effect of HCI factors on e-learning acceptance which together explained 54.9% of the variance in perceived success (SS), where U is the strongest determinant of SS.Master Thesis Potential and Status of Renewable Energy Development in Energy Import-Dependent Countries Turkey and Pakistan(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2021) Majeed, Mohsina; Ediger, Şevket Volkan; Kirkil, GökhanHuman life cannot be imagined without the use of energy. Demand for energy, meanwhile, is increasing daily across the globe, while the uses and sources of energy have changed over time. Fossil fuels have dominated other energy sources since the 19th century but began causing problems such as climate change. In order to address these problems, renewable energy sources (RES) were accepted as an alternative energy sources in recent years and technical and economic developments make possible the energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables at an accelerated rate. Turkey and Pakistan are both developing countries with large populations and high levels of energy-import dependency, 77% and 80%, respectively. At the same time, Turkey and Pakistan both have enormous potential for RE such as solar, wind, hydro, biomass and geothermal, according to the validated RE-potential maps of these countries. Turkey and Pakistan are realizing renewable energy transition and seeking to shape their current energy structure in the favor of RES. The factors affecting RED in Turkey and Pakistan are enormous RE potential, supportive RE policies by government and energy security issues. There are some political, economic, technical and social problems for RED in Turkey and Pakistan that include lack of proper RE policies, extended and time-consuming governmental procedures, the lack of domestic production of goods, and other financing problems for RE projects. If proper policy support and efficient investment become available, RES can provide enough power to fulfill the country's energy demand and bring prosperity and sustainability to both countries. Current RED in these countries is not sufficient for complete energy transition from fossil fuels to renewables. However, RE potential in these countries is enough for complete energy transition. According to SWOT analysis Pakistan's RE sector has various investment opportunities for Turkish investors. It has a validated RE source mapping system and untapped highly potential solar and windy areas. Mini-hydro plants is also a successful RE business model in Pakistan. The government of Pakistan is also offering various incentives for RE investors.

ZnO / MoS2 saydam iletken kompozit filmi basit bir süreç oluşu ve düşük maliyeti nedeniyle en önemli yöntem olarak kabul edilen sol-jel yöntemi ile üretilmiştir. ZnO / MoS2'nin kristal yapı özellikleri, X-Işını kırınım modeli (XRD) ile karakterize edilmiştir. XRD spektroskopisi ile, farklı miktarlarda MoS2 katkılı ZnO filminin kristal boyutu tayin edilmiştir. UV- görünür bölge absorpsiyon spektrometresi, filmin spektroskopik analizini gerçekleştirmek için kullanılmıştır. Absorpsiyon eğrisinin altındaki alan ve yarı maksimum absorbans verilerinin tam genişliği hesaplanmıştır. Bu değerle kullanılarak en iyi katkı maddesi dağılımı için MoS2 miktarı tespit edilmiştir. Ayrıca, en iyi saydam iletken malzemeyi belirlemek üzere, dört nokta prob yöntemi kullanılarak elde edilen direnç değerleri farklı MoS2 katkı miktarları için kıyaslanmıştır. Bu çalışmada, bir ZnO / MoS2 saydam iletken oksit filmin optik ve elektrik karakterizasyonlarını incelenmiştir.Article Development of a Parallel 3d Navier–stokes Solver for Sediment Transport Calculations in Channels(MDPI AG, 2020) Kirkil, GökhanWe propose a method to parallelize a 3D incompressible Navier–Stokes solver that uses a fully implicit fractional-step method to simulate sediment transport in prismatic channels. The governing equations are transformed into generalized curvilinear coordinates on a non-staggered grid. To develop a parallel version of the code that can run on various platforms, in particular on PC clusters, it was decided to parallelize the code using Message Passing Interface (MPI) which is one of the most flexible parallel programming libraries. Code parallelization is accomplished by “message passing” whereby the computer explicitly uses library calls to accomplish communication between the individual processors of the machine (e.g., PC cluster). As a part of the parallelization effort, besides the Navier–Stokes solver, the deformable bed module used in simulations with loose beds are also parallelized. The flow, sediment transport, and bathymetry at equilibrium conditions were computed with the parallel and serial versions of the code for the case of a 140-degree curved channel bend of rectangular section. The parallel simulation conducted on eight processors gives exactly the same results as the serial solver. The parallel version of the solver showed good scalability.Master Thesis Decarbonization Pathways For Turkish Power System Using The Leap Model Leap Modeli Kullanılarak Türkiye Elektrik Sistemi için Dekarbonizasyon Yolları(Kadir Has Üniversitesi, 2021) Özer, Fatma Ece; Kirkil, Gökhan; Yücekaya, Ahmet DenizThe negative impact of GHG released into the atmosphere on global warming cannot be ignored. Fossil-fueled power plants constitute a large part of Turkey's electricity production, as every country has a growing economy. Therefore, the electricity generation sector accounts for a significant portion of GHG emissions in Turkey. In addition to national bindings such as the Paris Agreement and the Kyoto Protocol, it is known that the Republic of Turkey aims to make not only electricity but also energy production greener in the coming years, in line with its own efforts. For this purpose, there are different modeling studies in the literature. This thesis aims to model Turkey's electricity generation sector in 2017, reveal the current situation, and then analyze how a greener and sustainable energy transformation will be possible with different scenarios and different main factors. In this direction, Turkey's electricity generation sector was modeled using the LEAP tool, then the decarbonization scenarios created within the openENTRANCE project were adapted to Turkey's data, and the numerical results of the scenarios were compared. As a result, it has been revealed that social awareness, adaptation to new technologies, and incentives of decision-makers are all critical factors in this regard.Article Citation - WoS: 37Citation - Scopus: 42Turkish Public Preferences for Energy(Elsevier Science, 2018) Ediger, Volkan S.; Kirkil, Gökhan; Çelebi, Emre; Ucal, Meltem Şengün; Kentmen-Cin, ÇiğdemPublic concern over energy supplies prices sustainability and efficiency has emerged as a major issue around the world. Yet most of what we know regarding public opinion on energy comes from North America and Europe. This paper presents the results from the 2016 Turkish Public Preferences for Energy Survey which included 1204 respondents and examined Turkish residents' household energy consumption energy policy preferences and environmental concerns. The main findings were that Turkish citizens consider natural gas and electricity highly expensive view dependence on imported energy as Turkey's most pressing energy challenge and recognize the problem of climate change. This lends public support for wind and solar power but at the same time energy issues and the environment policies of political parties do not affect voting choices and political preferences.Conference Object Citation - Scopus: 1Genesys-Mod Turkey: Quantitative Scenarios for Low Carbon Futures of the Turkish Energy System(IEEE Computer Society, 2022) Hasturk, I.S.; Celebi, E.; Yucekaya, A.D.; Kirkil, G.This paper examines the quantitative scenarios for low-carbon futures of the Turkish energy system at aggregated (country level) and regionally disaggregated (NUTS-1 level) levels. We have employed four different storylines for the future European energy system. They are quantified and implemented for the European energy system (30 regions, mostly single countries, including Turkey) using the open-source global energy system model, GENeSYS-MOD v3.0. We have compared the results of all scenarios at aggregated and disaggregated levels and found that there are significant differences among them. Specifically, the hydrogen production (and its use) has increased considerably in the disaggregated model when compared to the aggregated level results. The major reason for these differences is found to be the better estimation of regional renewable capacity factors (wind and solar) in the disaggregated level compared to aggregated level. © 2022 IEEE.Article Citation - WoS: 9Citation - Scopus: 11Large Eddy Simulation of Wind Flow Over a Realistic Urban Area(MDPI, 2020) Kirkil, Gökhan; Lin, Ching-LongA high-resolution large eddy simulation (LES) of wind flow over the Oklahoma City downtown area was performed to explain the effect of the building height on wind flow over the city. Wind flow over cities is vital for pedestrian and traffic comfort as well as urban heat effects. The average southerly wind speed of eight meters per second was used in the inflow section. It was found that heights and distribution of the buildings have the greatest impact on the wind flow patterns. The complexity of the flow field mainly depended on the location of buildings relative to each other and their heights. A strong up and downflows in the wake of tall buildings as well as large-scale coherent eddies between the low-rise buildings were observed. It was found out that high-rise buildings had the highest impact on the urban wind patterns. Other characteristics of urban canopy flows, such as wind shadows and channeling effects, are also successfully captured by the LES. The LES solver was shown to be a powerful tool for understanding urban canopy flows; therefore, it can be used in similar studies (e.g., other cities, dispersion studies, etc.) in the future.
