  1. 21. Digital mapping of techno-economic performance of a liquid-based solar photovoltaic/thermal (PVT) system over large geographical cities around the world

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Santhan Reddy Penaka; [2020]
    Keywords : PVT; Liquid-based; Techno-economic analysis; Digital mapping; Large geographical cities;

    Abstract : Photovoltaic thermal (PVT) collectors are widely used to harness a large fraction of the solar spectrum to generate electricity and heat from a single collector. The circulation of the working medium will pass through the collector which cools down the PV cell temperature and also increases the water temperature, which will increase the electrical and thermal performance at the same time.

  3. 22. Solar access potential affected by urban planning and building design – A parametric study in the urban context

    University essay from Lunds universitet/Avdelningen för Energi och byggnadsdesign; Lunds universitet/Institutionen för arkitektur och byggd miljö

    Author : Yuncong Li; Yiting Tian; [2020]
    Keywords : Daylight; urban planning; solar access potential; sun hours; vertical sky component; vertical daylight illuminance; solar irradiation; parametric analysis; Berlin; Copenhagen; Hong Kong; Arts and Architecture; Technology and Engineering;

    Abstract : In the initial stage of planning, considering the solar impact of urban layout on the building can effectively avoid some irreversible design issues, improve the indoor environment, and reduce energy demand. The typical architectural models of three representative cities (Copenhagen, Berlin and Hong Kong) were selected as the analysis cases in this study. READ MORE

  4. 23. Solar Tent : A Photovoltaic Generator Model for a Flexible Fabric with Inbuilt Cells

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Ali Manhal; Tammam M. Ali; [2019]
    Keywords : Solar tent; PV system; refugee camp; PV monitoring system; and flexible PV modules;

    Abstract : Natural disasters and conflicts in many different parts of the world force thousands of people to get displaced from their homes and live in refugee camps temporarily or permanently. For refugee families, lack of energy access has great impact on their lives. READ MORE

  5. 24. PHOTOVOLTAIC SYSTEM YIELD EVALUATION IN SWEDEN : A performance review of PV systems in Sweden 2017-2018

    University essay from Mälardalens högskola/Akademin för ekonomi, samhälle och teknik

    Author : Eric Schelin; [2019]
    Keywords : PV; Photovoltaics; Specific yield; Simulations; Shadowing; PVGIS; PVsyst; Solar irradiation;

    Abstract : The goal of this study is to evaluate Swedish photovoltaic systems regarding energy production from two different years and compare the gathered data with results from a model simulating optimal conditions. This is done to investigate how the energy production differs between each year, why there are differences, and also to evaluate the simulation tools compared to the real production data. READ MORE

  6. 25. Design and Mathematical Modelling of a Solar Carport with Flat Reflector

    University essay from Högskolan Dalarna/Energiteknik

    Author : Suriya Srinivasan; [2019]
    Keywords : Reflector; PV system; Solar Carport;

    Abstract : As the world is moving towards the renewable energy, there is increase in usage of the electric vehicles in transport sector. This has led to more consumption of electricity from the grid and thus affecting its stability. READ MORE
