Nowadays, shortage of the water resources is a global issue. Water desalination is a solution that can be used to solve the water shortage problem. Several methods have been proposed for water desalination and are categorized ...

Due to the growing rate of the cost of energy carriers and the shortage of different kinds of fuels, day by day it becomes more essential to use renewable energies such as wind, solar, hydrogen, geothermal, etc. The ...

A novel micro solar combined heating and power (CHP) cycle integrated with organic Rankine cycle (ORC) is proposed in this study. The thermal storage tank is installed to correct the mismatch between the supply of the solar ...

In this paper, detailed exergy and energy analysis of selected thermal power systems driven by parabolic trough solar collectors is presented. solar energy is used to feed a two stage steam Rankine cycle to supply domestic ...

It is reasonable to answer to the question: is the rule of thumb, which says that solar collector should be orientated towards the Equator with a tilt equal to latitude, is valid for high latitudes region in Southern ...

In this article, it is aimed to bring an intellectual declination to the aspects of “solar energy" deeply affecting the future of urbanization and planning activities and accordingly, the changes that may occur ...

In order to use photovoltaic cell effectively and improve its photoelectric conversion efficiency, the maximum power point of photovoltaic generation system should be tracked rapidly and stably. In this paper after comparison ...
