Two-phase flow and Drift-Flux models for rainy weather conditions

The energy from wind turbines is an essential source of clean energy, and depending on clean energy has increased recently due to climate changes. Therefore, it's necessary to study the factors that affect wind turbines' efficiency while focusing on weathers changes. In this study, the effect of parameters on the efficiency of wind turbines such as (humidity, volumetric flux, drift-flux, void fraction, relative velocity, or drift velocity) has been investigated by utilizing a drift-flux model in a two-phase flow (water and air) and considering that there is a relative velocity between air and water which are known as drift velocity, also, taking into account volumetric fraction. Besides, the hourly weather data has been obtained from the Directorate General of Meteorology in Turkey for Mersin province for the year 2017
