Abstract: A study is reported of predicted flat-plate photovoltaic output in Southern Nevada, and this output is compared to the time variation of the electrical utility load for this area. Included in ...

Abstract: The most general form of solar tracking formulae of an arbitrarily oriented heliostat toward an arbitrarily located target on the Earth is presented. With this complete solution, the used ...

Abstract: Various solar electric system performance codes are used to predict the power generated by different solar power systems in the Southern Nevada area during 1990 by using the National Solar ...

Abstract: Developing turbulent forced convection flow in a two-dimensional duct is simulated for Reynolds numbers ranging from 4560 to 12,000. Simultaneously developing velocity and temperature distributions ...

Abstract: The basic mathematics and structure of heliostat have remained unchanged for many decades. Following the challenge first made by Ries et al., the non-imaging focusing heliostat recently proposed ...
