Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Technical, Economic and Environmental Evaluation Study of Utilising Fixed, Single and Dual-Axis Solar Photovoltaic Systems in Boubyan and Failaka Islands in KuwaitDr. Abdulla AL-RashidiImplementing renewable energy technologies, such as solar energy, is an important step towards meeting the increasing demand for electricity in Kuwait. This would be a very helpful way of minimising the negative environmental impacts of conventional power plants. This study reports on the results of a comprehensive technical, environmental and economic evaluation of the use of a grid-connected solar photovoltaic … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 9 Nov 2019 · 7,610 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (HPV/T) Systems: From Theory to ApplicationsErdem Cuce, Erman Kadir Oztekin, Pinar Mert CuceHybrid photovoltaic/ thermal systems are very promising clean energy harvesting devices where they can be used either standalone system or can be incorporated with other systems. In this study, historical developments leading to current Hybrid Photovoltaic/Thermal (HPV/T) systems as it is used today and global findings to enhance the performance of HPV/T system through state-of-the-art analyses are presented in a … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 9, Issue 1 · 29 Jun 2018 · 7,877 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Real-Time Optimization Approach to the Efficiency of a Photovoltaic System by a Hybrid Tracking Technique using LabVIEWMohamed Redha Rezoug, Rachid ChenniAmong the lines of research on improving the efficiency of a photovoltaic panel, sun tracking techniques occupy a large part. In this article, an extension of Laboratory Virtual Instrument Engineering Workbench (LabVIEW); LabVIEW Interface For Arduino (LIFA) is used. It allows the driving of an Arduino board from LabVIEW, on which a collaboration technique between two categories of pursuit is … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 15, Issue 5 · 15 May 2018 · 7,958 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Exoplanet has Smothering Stratosphere without WaterRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Antonio Apicella, Florian Ion Tiberiu PetrescuIn some earlier works, the authors of the present study have shown that a modern ship should resemble a UFO, an accelerated particle jet propulsion with a particle accelerator on board the ship, accelerating to the very best big. The problem as an idea is clear and simple, but the current technologies we have in the field of fixed particle … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 2, Issue 1 · 22 Jan 2018 · 6,998 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractSustainable Energy for Aerospace VesselsRelly Victoria Petrescu, Raffaella Aversa, Bilal Akash et al.The advances in solar technology and electric propulsion now offer the promise of new, very capable space transport systems that will allow us to effectively explore the solar system. NASA has developed many concepts of space-powered spacecraft with power levels ranging from tens to hundreds of kilowatts for robotic and asteroid-driven missions and Mars. This paper describes two electrical/chemical propulsion … …Journal of Aircraft and Spacecraft Technology, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 4 Nov 2017 · 8,019 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractAn Overview of Concentrating Photovoltaic Thermal (CPVT) CollectorsReza Danesh Azarian, Erdem Cuce, Pinar Mert CuceConcentrating Photovoltaic Thermal Collectors (CPVT) are in the centre of interest among solar collectors. CPVT collectors’ features such as high efficiency and multi-output stimulate researchers and industry partners to focus on this technology. Innovative design is the key point in achieving an efficient collector. In this study, a comprehensive research is conducted on the state-of-the-art developments in CPVT collectors covering … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 8, Issue 1 · 7 Jul 2017 · 8,319 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractApplication of Titanium Dioxide Self-Cleaning Coatings on Photovoltaic Modules for Soiling Related Losses ReductionAnnalisa Andaloro, Francesco FrontiniSeveral studies have assessed the influence of soiling deposition on Photovoltaic (PV) modules front-cover with regards to performance losses over time. In fact, soiling phenomena in PV systems are ascribed as responsible for medium and long-term yield reduction up to 16% over the first-year of outdoor exposure. Provided that PV technology is a low yield energy production source, maintaining module … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 10, Issue 1 · 5 Feb 2017 · 7,676 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOptimal Planning and Design of an Environmentally Friendly Hybrid Energy System for Rural Electrification in IraqAli Saleh Aziz, Sara Ahmed KhudhierCurrent power systems create environmental effects because of the using of fossil fuels, specially coal, since CO2 is released to the atmosphere. Contrary to conventional energy sources, renewable energy sources produce a clean energy which is in general free of pollution, environmentally sustainable and technologically efficient. There is an increased interest in solar energy that can generate electricity with no … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 26 Jan 2017 · 7,807 accessesView PDFCite
