Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEnergetic Performances Study of an Integrated Collector Storage Solar Water HeaterO. Helal, B. Chaouachi, S. Gabsi, C. BoudenProblem statement: Although that the interest attributed to the solar energy remains relatively limited, we attend today to the conception of several installations using the sun as energy source among which we quote the solar water heater. Approach: A study of energetic performances was taken on an integrated collector/storage solar water heater made in the National School of Engineers of … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 1 · 31 Mar 2010 · 7,894 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEvaluation of Single-Pass Photovoltaic-Thermal Air Collector with Rectangle Tunnel AbsorberGoh Li Jin, Adnan Ibrahim, Yee Kim Chean et al.Problem statement: Photovoltaic solar cell generate electric by receiving sun light or solar irradiance. But solar cell received heat from solar irradiance as well and this will reduced the efficiency of the solar cell. The heat trap at the solar photovoltaic panel become waste energy. Approach: The solution for this was by adding a cooling system to the photovoltaic panel. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 2 · 28 Feb 2010 · 8,327 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractHybrid Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) Air and Water Based Solar Collectors Suitable for Building Integrated ApplicationsAdnan Ibrahim, Goh Li Jin, Roonak Daghigh et al.Problem statement: Experiments have been conducted to investigate the effect of mass flow rates on the electrical, thermal and combined of photovoltaic thermal efficiencies of the hybrid collectors. Approach: Two photovoltaic thermal solar collectors were designed and fabricated. The first collector, known as spiral flow absorber collector, designed to generate hot water and electricity. The second collector, known as single … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,091 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractMathematical Model of Double Pass Photovoltaic Thermal Air Collector with FinsEbrahim M. Ali Alfegi, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Mohd Yusof Hj Othman, Baharudin Bin YatimProblem statement: The efficiency of photovoltaic cells is generally temperature dependent (efficiency decrease when the temperature of the photovoltaic cells increase). This problem can be solved by cooling the solar cells during operation and operated at low temperature. Approach: This study presented a numerical model of double pass Photovoltaic Thermal (PV/T) solar air collector with fins attached to the back … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 5 · 31 Oct 2009 · 8,006 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThe Temperature Dependence Coefficients of Amorphous Silicon and Crystalline Photovoltaic Modules Using Malaysian Field Test InvestigationSulaiman Shaari, Kamaruzzaman Sopian, Nowshad Amin, Mohd Nizan KassimThe temperature dependence coefficients of amorphous silicon and crystalline photovoltaic (PV) modules using Malaysian field data have been obtained using linear regression technique. This is achieved by studying three test stand-alone PV-battery systems using 62 Wp a-Si, 225 Wp multi-crystalline and 225 Wp mono-crystalline PV modules. These systems were designed to provide electricity for rural domestic loads at 200 W, … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 4 · 30 Apr 2009 · 7,281 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Energy Storage in the Ground of a Greenhouse by the Polypropylene Capillary Heat ExchangerM. Lazâar, S. Koôli, M. Hazami et al.The problem of temperature inversion is one of solar origin principal problems about which the cultures under shelters complain. Indeed, for the winter period, the temperature under greenhouse is very low at night and it is rather high during the day in summer. Consequently, the heating of the greenhouses is essential. In this work, we studied the advisability of using … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 5, Issue 12 · 31 Dec 2008 · 6,939 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractE-Learning System Development using an Open-Source Customization ApproachH. Mohammadi, S. A. Monadjemi, P. Moallem, A. A. OlounabadiEducational organizations have different methods of deploying E-learning systems, of which is using and developing open-source e-learning systems. One should consider some criteria when choosing a suitable system includes: documentation, usage rate, structure, standards support and educational strategy. In this work an e-learning software system has been elected and five phases of modification has been done to domesticate it, which … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 4, Issue 5 · 31 May 2008 · 6,739 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractDesign and Development of a Photovoltaic Power System for Tropical Greenhouse CoolingFaisal Mohammed Seif Al-Shamiry, Desa Ahmad, Abdul Rashid Mohamed Sharif et al.Renewable energy sources like photovoltaic (PV) panels are used today in many applications. Natural ventilation in tropical greenhouse is common method for ventilation, which gives higher inside temperatures compared to the outside temperatures. In addition, this type of ventilation is not enough to reduce high temperature inside the structure in low land areas. Thus the requirement of cooling is increased. … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 4, Issue 6 · 30 Jun 2007 · 8,213 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Near Real-time Early Warning System on Erosion HazardsFaisal H. Ali, Tew K. HuiWith many incidences of landslides, mudslides and erosion occurrences lately, especially in the highlands in Malaysia, properties were damaged and lives were lost. Seeing the need of resolving and minimizing such untoward incidences, a study has been embarked on developing a near real-time early warning system on erosion hazards so as to provide an early warning to the public, whenever … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 2, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2006 · 6,706 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractThermal Performance of a Solar Heat Storage Accumulator Used For Greenhouses ConditioningMejdi Hazami, Sami Kooli, Meriam Lazaar et al.The use of solar energy for greenhouse heating has gained an increasing acceptance during the last years.
