Replacing the compressor with solar-powered clean energy could be an efficient alternative to reduce energy consumption significantly. The system presented comprises a Solar-powered Thermal Refrigeration System based on the Peltier Effect, functioning on a cooling module. Since the system is solar-powered, an automatic solar tracker that incorporates Light Dependent Resistors and a servo motor is integrated to supply maximum power by continuously orienting the panel in the direction of sunlight and thus always keeping it charged. This research aims to analyse the performance of a solar-powered thermoelectric refrigeration system. The model developed is a promising alternative for domestic refrigerators, accounting for a 44–63% drop in power consumption to cool a commensurate capacity refrigerator of 2.6L. From definitive experimentation, the lowest temperature of 15.15°C was achieved within the refrigeration chamber after powering the circuit for 136 seconds. Initially, the air inside the refrigeration chamber at 22.48°C (ambient temperature) was dropped by 7.33°C. A high COP of 0.54 is achieved on experimentation.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"226 - 238"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088831","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

However, the conversion efficiency is observed to be poor since losses from collector surface is higher. Mostly heat transfer augmentation in solar collectors is one of the key issues in energy saving, compact designs and different operational temperatures. The present work focusses on coining an appropriate Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) and internal grooves to the Heat Transfer Fluid (HTF) ducts to enhance the performance of LFPC, taking Mumbai as site for analysis. Experimental feasibility study at Mumbai city for four months unrolled maximum global radiation of 800 W/m2 and 32.5°C of ambient temperature. Thermophysical analysis of three distinct base fluids namely Molten Salt, Dowtherm A and Therminol VP-1 showcased significant performance of therminol VP-1 with specific heat, density and thermal conductivity of about 1688.8 J/kg-K, 1351.6 kg/m3 and 20.99 W/mK respectively at 50°C. Similarly, three different internal groove profiles (plain, rectangular and trapezoidal) where analysed, of which trapezoidal profile showed improved system performance with maximum of 51.6°C as outlet temperature and 1478 W useful heat gain. The efficiency of trapezoidal profile (77.3%) was found to be 1.01 and 1.003% upfront of plain and rectangular groove profiles. Experimental values for LFPC system with water and plain duct was recorded to compare with other combinations. The enhancement achieved is helpful for addressing various green-house gas emissions and clean energy sustainability.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"244 - 252"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088846","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The structure of a parabolic trough collector consists of a reflecting mirror, a heat transfer fluid circulating in an absorber tube that is covered by a glass envelope. The studied model has been subjected to seasonal variations (solstices and equinoxes days) of solar radiation along with the concentrated heat flux reflected from the parabolic trough mirror for conditions at Tetouan city, Morocco. The amount of diffuse and beam solar radiation required has been modelled using the solar load model under Ansys Fluent software environment. The estimation of the heat transfer mechanism of our model has been done by solving Navier Stokes equations, also, the solar discrete ordinate model (DO) has been used to simulate radiation heat exchange on the receiver. The results have shown that the temperature of the heat collector element reaches its maximum values at equinoxes days compared to solstices days, also, it is found that the use of temperature-dependent properties enhances the thermal performance of the model by 1.4%.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"311 - 323"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088871","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This paper proposes an artificial neural network (ANN) based fault detection approach. Partial shading, line-to-line fault, open circuit fault, short circuit fault, and ground fault in a PV array have been investigated, and a data set is synthesized to evaluate the impact on maximum power amplitude and number of power peaks under various exposure of irradiance and temperature. The ANN model has been trained considering irradiance, temperature, maximum power, and the number of power peaks corresponding to the different faulty conditions and non-fault situations. The considered ANN model has been optimized in order to increase the accuracy of fault identification. A particle swarm optimization-based algorithm has been employed to find the optimum number of neurons in the hidden layers to achieve the highest possible prediction accuracy on the test data set. The performance of the optimized neural network has been further cross-validated by an arranged data set containing all the types of faulty conditions. The effectiveness of the proposed technique is verified by comparing the results with existing methods.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"269 - 282"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088847","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

First the simulated results for THD, power output and efficiency are tabulated with variation of load power factor individually for both systems and best operating power factor is found with respect to distortions and efficiency respectively. For Stand-alone system, circuit efficiency as high as 96.8% is achieved when operated at 0.85 power factor. Then the analytical analysis has been carried out for grid connected system where efficiency of 84.3% is achieved for 60o grid phase angle and 75.8% for 10o and thus proposing operation at higher grid phase angle. Harmonic components have been further reduced and brought below 5% level by means of passive filters.

Extrapolating wind data is affected, among other parameters, by the spacing height of the measured wind data. An estimate of the wind shear coefficient (WSC) is needed in order to develop the predicted wind speed profile. In this paper, the effect of spacing height of wind speed measurements on the WSC estimation is investigated using the power-law model, while taking into consideration the effect of the atmospheric stability. Estimation of WSC that would give the nearest value of the extrapolated wind speed to the measured value was performed at three different terrains and promising wind farm locations in Libya. The obtained results indicate the undeniable fact that WSC depends on time, altitude and the spacing height. The value of WSC of the lower measuring spacing height of 20–40 m gives best estimate to wind speed profiles for all atmospheric stability conditions for the two southern cities, while the second spacing height (40–60 m) gave best estimate of wind speed profile for the coastal site. Adopting the proposed WSC instead of the value of seventh in wind potential assessments, leads to an increase in the productivity of wind turbines at rates of 8 and 16% at hub heights of 50 and 100 m, respectively. This in turn will reduce the levelized cost of energy (LCOE) and enhance the competitiveness of wind energy in the energy market.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"343 - 359"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088835","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The energy performance of SSPV/T collectors of different structural designs is analyzed and compared with conventional collectors. The results show that for SSPV/T or conventional photovoltaic/thermal collectors, an insulated cover is very important, especially for thermal efficiency. The thermal efficiency of Design C (cover-insulated SSPV/T) is nearly four times of Design A (non-cover-insulated SSPV/T), while the electrical efficiency is only reduced by 0.7%. The analysis indicates that at present technologies, the spectral splitting PV/T collectors have no obvious advantages than conventional PV/T collectors whether for non-cover-insulated or cover-insulated PV/T collectors. Additionally, Design F (conventional cover-insulated PV/T with low-e coating) performs better than Design C (cover-insulated SSPV/T), low-e coating (high transmittance) is very promising in improving PV/T thermal efficiency.","PeriodicalId":475,"journal":{"name":"Applied Solar Energy","volume":"59 3","pages":"253 - 268"},"PeriodicalIF":1.204,"publicationDate":"2023-10-08","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41088869","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
