Simulation of a Standalone, Portable Steam Generator Driven by a Solar Concentrator
Solar energy is a good solution for energy-deficiency problems, especially in regions such as rural areas in the Middle East that have not been electrified yet or are under electrification. In this paper, with the aid of a Computational Fluid Dynamics simulation, we propose a system that comprises a trough solar concentrator and a pipe—with flowing water—that is set in the concentrator focus. T...
متن کاملAerogel Templated ZnO Dye-Sensitized Solar Cells
Dye-sensitized solar cells (DSSCs) based on nanocrystalline TiO2 have exhibited solar energy-conversion efficiencies of over 10% and remain one of the most promising candidates for cost-effective solar energy conversion devices. The most efficient DSSCs reported to date utilize a high surface area photoanode, which allows for good light harvesting with a moderate extinction dye, in contact with...
متن کاملBSA-directed synthesis of CuS nanoparticles as a biocompatible photothermal agent for tumor ablation in vivo.
Photothermal therapy as a physical therapeutic approach has greatly attracted research interest due to its negligible systemic effects. Among the various photothermal agents, CuS nanoparticles have been widely used due to their easy preparation, low cost, high stability and strong absorption in the NIR region. However, the ambiguous biotoxicity of CuS nanoparticles limited their bio-application...
متن کاملTowards a Flexible Context-aware Pervasive Alert Generation System
This paper presents a proposal for a context-aware framework for alert generation. The framework is based on a general purpose architecture integrating three core technologies: ontology representation, multi-agent paradigm and rule-based logic. The system is very efficient and versatile and its customization to new scenarios requires a very reduced effort, substantially limited to the update/ex...
متن کاملA Portable Steam Distillation Unit for Essential Oil Crops
An experimental steam distillation unit has been designed, built, and tested for the extraction of essential oils from peppermint and spearmint. The unit, using a 130-gal (510-liter) distillation tank, is intermediate in size between laboratoryscale extractors and commercial-sized distilleries, yet provides oil in sufficient quantity for industrial evaluation. The entire apparatus-a dieselfuel-...
