Türkiye’de aylık 07.00, 14.00, 21.00 ortalama termal konfor koşullarının zaman-mekânsal analizi (1975-2008)

Abstract

The bioclimatic conditions of Turkey have been carried out by the multi linear regression analysis of latitude, elevation and maritime parameters and monthly mean physiologically equivalent temperatures (PET) of 69 stations which has measurements at 07:00, 14.00 and 21.00 LST (local standard time) between 1975 and 2008. PET is one of the thermal comfort indexes which can included the physiological responds of human being into its calculations by air temperature, relative humidity, wind speed, cloudiness, solar radiation. In Turkey, in the conditions which the incoming solar energy is high (at 14.00 and/or from May to September) the highest PET values have been calculated at terrestrial lowlands, at the opposite side (07:00, 21.00 and/or from October to April) the highest PET values have been found at maritime parts of the country. Furthermore, as a result it is found that when latitude, elevation and maritime values increase, the PET values of the location decrease. The changing impact of these three parameters controls the daily and monthly bioclimatological conditions of Turkey
