Abstract

Nowadays, due to environmental pollution, finding and using alternative sources of energy is a priority for any economy. For this purpose, scholars from all over the world are focusing on finding the best alternative sources of energy. One example is the wave energy. This natural source is characterized by being renewable, inexhaustible, not polluting, thus is not contributing to global warming by generating emissions. Yet such a resource is extremely variable. The aim of this paper is to analyze the Black Sea wave pattern near the coast of Bulgaria. More precisely in this paper various types of distribution were analyzed in respect to significant height of combined wind waves and swell (Hs), mean wave direction (MWD), mean wave period (MWP). The target area is located in the range 43.75oN, 42oS, 28.5oE and 29.5oS. In this analysis, five points were taken into consideration. For this study, reanalysis data coming from ECMWF (European Centre for Medium Range Weather Forecasts) was analyzed. The considered period covers 36 years of data, more precisely from 01 January 1983 to 31 December 2018. After the analysis we can draw a compressive picture of the wave energy distribution for the studied area through the considered interval.
