Effectiveness of Phase Change Material for Cooling of Photovoltaic Panel for Hot Climate
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Phase change materials (PCMs) are investigated in this study as an option to reduce the surface temperature of the photovoltaic (PV) cell during sunshine hours to enhance the electrical efficiency of the cells. For this ...
Designing, Modelling and Experimental Investigation of Direct Evaporative Cooling System Coupled With Commercial Desiccant Dehumidifier
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: With the increasing demand of clean and energy-efficient air conditioning systems, evaporative air cooling technique is gaining significant attention owing to less energy consumption and environmentally safe technology in ...
Heat Energy Transfer Using Butyl Stearate as Phase Change Material for Free-Cooling Applications
Publisher: American Society of Civil Engineers
Abstract: Buildings exploit 4% of the total annual global energy consumption and account for 33% of the greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions around the world. A significant portion of this energy is consumed in buildings for heating, ...
Performance Evaluation of an Evacuated Flat-Plate Collector System for Domestic Hot Water Applications
Publisher: The American Society of Mechanical Engineers (ASME)
Abstract: Rapid population growth and increasing energy demand in developing countries are the key drivers behind rising concerns such as energy poverty and environmental degradation. Harnessing solar energy can help the developing ...
