Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleAnalysis of Artificial Neural Network Point Forecasting Models and Prediction Intervals for Solar Irradiance EstimationAntônio Fabrício Guimarães de Sousa, Helaine Cristina Moraes Furtado, Wilson Negrão Macêdo, Anderson Alvarenga de Moura MenesesAn accurate knowledge on solar irradiance prediction is particularly required for proper development and planning of Photovoltaic (PV) energy systems. The main purpose of the present research is to assess the accuracy of Artificial Neural Networks (ANN) short-term forecast of univariate solar irradiance time series, with conventional point prediction and Prediction Intervals (PIs), comparing models. The Lower Upper Bound Estimation … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 3 · 17 Jul 2020 · 7,440 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsEvaluation of Aerosol Particle Size at High Polluted Region in the World Using Direct Solar Radiation Measurements: Helwan as a Case RegionU. Ali RahomaProblem statement: Particle counting and sizing of atmospheric aerosols by electro-optical methods are complex and absolute interpretation of measurements is difficult, so, the scattered light varies in a complicated manner with the system of optics as well as with the size and physical characteristics of particles. Approach: The estimation of the air aerosol number concentration variation was carried out in … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 6, Issue 2 · 8 May 2010 · 6,670 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractOn the Design and Construction of a Dual Axis Solar Tracker Prototype for a Dish Concentrator using ATMega3298P MicrocontrollerAlbright Abu Edet, Samaila Umaru, Isah IbrahimThe desire for reliable power supply is the reason for further research into alternative sources of power. Although solar tracking is not a new technology, yet solar harvesters still suffer low efficiency due to the intermittence of solar insolation. Thus many smart systems have been designed to maximise solar harvesters. Among the systems is the dual axis solar tracking system. … …Journal of Mechatronics and Robotics, Vol. 5, Issue 1 · 21 Apr 2021 · 7,248 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractThe Timeless Contribution of Rootstocks towards Successful Horticultural Farming: From Ancient Times to the Climate Change EraIoannis E. PapadakisGrafting is a horticultural practice by which living vegetative plant organs (root, stem and/or buds) of either the same genotype or, usually, different genotypes belonging to the same species, genus, subfamily and/or family, are tightly connected to each other to form a double-compound plant. In fact, it is a method of asexual (clonal-vegetative) propagation of plants. The basal part of … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 4 · 16 Dec 2016 · 9,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractReference Solar Radiation Year and Some Climatology Aspects of East Coast of West MalaysiaAbdul Majeed Muzathik, Wan Mohd Norsani Bin Wan Nik, Khalid Bin Samo, Mohd Zamri IbrahimProblem statement: This study examined in detail some aspects of radiation climatology for Terengganu state in Malaysia. The geographical co-ordinates of the site are 5°10’N latitude 103°06’E longitude and 5.2 m altitude. Approach: The data used in the present study were taken from a recording data station installed at site by the Malaysian Meteorology Department (2004). In addition to this, … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 3, Issue 2 · 30 Jun 2010 · 8,854 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractModeling and Control of a Photovoltaic Energy System Using the State-Space Averaging TechniqueMohd Saifuzam Jamri, Tan Chee WeiProblem statement: This study presented the modeling and control of a stand-alone Photovoltaic (PV) system using the state-space averaging technique. Approach: The PV module was modeled based on the parameters obtained from a commercial PV data sheet while state-space method is used to model the power converter. A DC-DC boost converter was chosen to step up the input DC voltage … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,989 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEstimate of Aerosol Optical Depth Using Broadband Direct Normal Observations at Highest Polluted Area in the WorldU. Ali Rahoma, A. H. HassanProblem statement: The measurement of different components of direct solar radiation for this research has been carried out in Helwan, Egypt. Helwan (Latitude 29°52 N, Longitude 31°20 E). This is a considered as the largest polluted region in the world. The level of pollution in Helwan region is higher, compared to the international limit by about 7 or 10 times … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 7, Issue 5 · 31 May 2010 · 7,069 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
