Research ArticleOpen accessPhrase in the titleThermal 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 PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the keywordsThermal 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. Active solar systems applied to greenhouses can supply a significant part of the heating requirements. However, there are some problems related to the cost of the heat collection unit and the heat storage methods. In this context several techniques were born. The most … …American Journal of Environmental Sciences, Vol. 1, Issue 4 · 31 Dec 2005 · 7,037 accessesView PDF Cite

Research ArticleOpen accessIn the abstractEffect of Length Ratios on Heat Transfer Characteristics of Closed-Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe with Non-Uniform DiameterP. Sakulchangsatjatai, P. Pathike, P. TerdtoonProblem statement: Closed-loop oscillating heat pipe is a high performance heat exchanger especially as this heat exchanger has one direction flow of working fluid inside tube. Approach: This research studies the effect of length ratios on heat transfer characteristic of Closed Loop Oscillating Heat Pipe with Non-Uniform Diameter (CLOHP/NUD). The 2.03 and 1.06 mm inner diameter of capillary tube were … …Energy Research Journal, Vol. 1, Issue 2 · 31 Oct 2010 · 7,680 accessesView PDF Cite
