Increasing of net energy storage (Q net) and discharge time of phase change material (t PCM), simultaneously, are important purpose in the design of solar systems. In the present paper, Multi-Objective (MO) based on hybrid of Particle Swarm Optimization (PSO) and multiple crossover and mutation operator is used for Pareto based optimization of solar systems. The conflicting objectives are Q net...

Normal 0 false false false EN-US X-NONE AR-SA MicrosoftInternetExplorer4 Measurement of solar radiance demands expensive devices to be used. Alternatively, estimator models are used instead. In this paper, a new method based on the empirical equations is introduced to estimate the monthly average daily global solar radiation on a horizontal surface. The proposed method uses Intelligent Water ...

maximum power point tracking controller is essential to obtain the maximum power from a solar array in the photovoltaic systems as the pv power module varies with the temperature and solar irradiation. in this paper, several methods for the mppt of the pv systems are discussed and it can to be used as a helpful reference for the upcoming mppt user in the pv applications.

the present paper is aimed at describing a “closed cycle” power plant schematic (soft, solar oxygen fuel turbine) with macroalgae (seaweed) cultivation in a pond, combustion of its organic matter in a fluidized bed boiler of rankine cycle and return of the combustion products to the pond to feed algae. the oxygen used for combustion is released to atmosphere in photosynthesis. as a renewable fu...

tellurium (te) nanostructures have been successfully synthesized via a simple hydrothermal methodfrom the reaction of a tecl4 aqueous solution with thioglycolic acid (tga) as a reductant. tga can be easily oxidized to the corresponding disulfide [sch2co2h]2, which in turn can reduce tecl4 to te. the obtained te was characterized by xrd, sem, eds, and drs. the effect of reducing agent on morphol...

precipitation and air temperature data, only, are often recorded at meteorological stations, with radiation beingmeasured at very few weather stations, especially in developing countries. therefore there arises a need for suitablemodels to estimate solar radiation for a completion of data sets. this paper is about an evaluation of eight models foran estimation of daily solar radiation (q) from ...

introduction the significant of solar energy as a renewable energy source, clean and without damage to the environment, for the production of electricity and heat is of great importance. furthermore, due to the oil crisis as well as reducing the cost of home heating by 70%, solar energy in the past two decades has been a favorite of many researchers. solar collectors are devices for collecting ...
