Abstract: During the 1980s and early 1990s, the use of cool thermal energy storage (TES) in commercial, institutional, and industrial facility air-conditioning systems became widespread in the United States. The growth of TES was ...

Abstract: The temperature of a photovoltaic module is typically required as an input to models that predict the module’s performance. Some common models use the nominal operating cell temperature (NOCT), ...

Abstract: The “five-parameter model” is a performance model for photovoltaic solar cells that predicts the voltage and current output by representing the cells as an equivalent electrical circuit with ...
