Measuring Velocity Changes along a Solar Chimney
The increasing consumption of energy from fossil fuels on the one hand and the pollution created by it on the other hand has always raised the concern of replacing clean and renewable energy with fossil fuels in the human mind. Generating electricity through clean energy can be a good solution to reduce pollutants and prevent global warming. One of the most available types of renewable energy i...
متن کاملBasic Solar Chimney Flow Improvements
Preliminary note This paper deals with the numerical analysis procedure and results of flow simulation through solar chimney. Because of relatively low Reynolds numbers, some aerodynamic improvements could be obtained. The paper links input heat energy with geometry or air flow parameters. Basic solar chimney geometry is carried out and analyzed with CFD application in three dimensional domain....
متن کاملImprovement of thermal performance of a solar chimney based on a passive solar heating system with phase-change materials
Passive solar systems such as solar chimneys need solar radiation in order to work. Therefore, they cannot present stable natural ventilation when solar energy vanishes: to have a more robust and stable condition, solar energy should be stored during the day and released back during the night. Phase change materials can save additional thermal energy during the day and release it during the nig...

متن کاملGaSb-Based Solar Cells for Full Solar Spectrum Energy Harvesting
DOI: 10.1002/aenm.201700345 conversion efficiency. Devices comprising these alloys (and, in some cases, the group IV element, germanium) have held the world record for conversion efficiency under concentrated sunlight for more than the last thirty years with steady increases in efficiency year-on-year.[2] Efficiency improvements result from many aspects of MJSC design, but among the most import...
