Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsMethod of Efficiency Improvement in District Heating SystemsAndrey Gennadiievich Batuhtin, Maxim Stanislavovich Bass, Sergey Anatoljevich Ivanov et al.The article determines application potential of solar energy in conditions of sharply continental climate. It presents an energy-efficient solar energy recovery scheme in district heating systems, allowing to reduce capital costs and maintenance charges and to increase degree of substitution of conventional sources of heat. Versatility of systems using this method results in its multi-zone application: From a cottage-type house … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 2 · 1 Feb 2016 · 7,521 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractA Faulty Solar Panel Detecting and Mapping Method Using aDrone with RGB and Thermal Cameras in Solar Power PlantSoobin Jeon, Dongmahn SeoA solar panel generates electricity power using the sun's rays. It isusually located on a rooftop or open field without shadow. This solar panelis hard to be tested by nonprofessionals. Therefore, we propose a detectingsystem for a faulty solar panel using a drone with an RGB camera and athermal camera. The drone is applied for collecting aerial videos. The RGBcamera … …Journal of Computer Science, Vol. 21, Issue 5 · 21 May 2025 · 4,591 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractFeasibility of Hybrid Neuro-Fuzzy (ANFIS) Machine Learning Model with Classical Multi-Linear Regression (MLR) For the Simulation of Solar Radiation: A Case Study Abuja, NigeriaNajashi B. Gafai, Asia'u Talatu BelgoreThe extremely variable nature of solar radiation makes it difficult for solar power plants to keep up with predicted power output and demand curves. As a result, solar radiation simulation is crucial to the efficient design, administration, and operation of any solar power plant. With only partially satisfactory results, empirical models have been routinely employed in Nigeria to predict solar … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 13, Issue 1 · 21 Jul 2022 · 10,032 accessesView PDFCite
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 · 7,603 accessesView PDFCite
Review ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractExploring the Potential for Concentration of Nutrients from Urine Using Solar Evaporation and Carbon Dioxide Trapping of AmmoniaTesfamariam Y. Debessai, Ababu T. Tiruneh, Gabriel C. BwembyaNutrients derived from urine such as nitrogen, phosphorous and potassium constitute valuable sources of fertilizers needed for growing plants and as alternatives to commercial fertilizers. Concentration of nutrients available from urine provides advantages of reducing the volume of transportation, the health risk and making nutrient application to soil stable and suitable. An exploratory review of a possible technology for concentration … …American Journal of Engineering and Applied Sciences, Vol. 12, Issue 4 · 28 Oct 2019 · 7,167 accessesView PDFCite
Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractGIS-Based Optimal Site Selection for Installation of Large-Scale Smart Grid-Connected Photovoltaic (PV) Power Plants in Selangor, MalaysiaSabo Mahmoud Lurwan, Mohammed Oludare Idrees, Goma Bedawi Ahmed et al.This study presents a GIS-based model to identify optimal sites to install large-scale smart grid-connected Photovoltaic (PV) power plants. Input datasets include digital elevation model, road networks, grid lines and daily average solar radiation. Using multi-criteria decision-making approach, we set constraining conditions for slope, proximity to the road, proximity to grid lines, solar radiation and land use to optimize the … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 14, Issue 1 · 30 Jan 2017 · 8,783 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 abstractEnvironmental Protection through Nuclear EnergyFlorian Ion T. Petrescu, Antonio Apicella, Relly Victoria V. Petrescu et al.Environmental protection through implementation of green energies is progressively becoming a daily reality. Numerous sources of green energy were introduced in recent years. Although this process initially started with difficulties, it finally resulted in an acceleration and implementation of new green energy technologies. Nonetheless, new major obstacles are emerging. The most worldwide difficult obstacle encountered, especially for wind and photovoltaic … …American Journal of Applied Sciences, Vol. 13, Issue 9 · 28 Sep 2016 · 12,504 accessesView PDFCite
EditorialOpen accessIn the abstractAn Opportunity for the Agricultural Sector: The Renewable Energy SourcesRiccardo Testa, Salvatore TudiscaToday, among the most important issue for energy decisions by policymakers, there are security challenges and environmental impacts on climate change and economic aspects. Since the seventies, in fact, global warming and environmental issues have had an increasing importance in international debate, attracting the attention of several scientific studies (Landi and Benelli, 2016). Many of these studies denoted that over … …American Journal of Agricultural and Biological Sciences, Vol. 11, Issue 3 · 6 Sep 2016 · 8,092 accessesView PDFCite
