ABSTRACT
For sustainable development, a reduction in energy demand is essential.
This could be achieved through improving energy efficiency, effective energy
conservation and management. The weather conditions of a given region are the
most important consideration for the proper design of space AC (Air Conditioning) systems. In this
study, the typical
meteorological year and climatic database of Turkey for the energy analysis of
buildings were generated by SQL (Structured Query Language) database programmimg language. The Finkelstein-Schafer statistical
method was applied to analyze the hourly measured weather data of a 23-year
period (1989-2012) and select
representative TMMs (Typical Meteorological Months). The selection criteria were based on 13
meteorological parameters. These parameters are the daily mean, maximum and
minimum values and ranges of temperature, dew-point and wind velocity and the
daily values of global solar radiation. According to results of TMY (Typical
Meteorological Year), climatic database of Turkey including daily or hourly
climate variables was created in SQL data tables.
