Amidst a backdrop of rapidly increasing world-wide electricity demand, solar thermal power generation shows great potential for supplying the electricity needs of numerous countries in the Sun-belt regions of the world. In these regions, the absence of sig ...
Around 3/4 of global resources are currently consumed in urban settlements, with corresponding adverse environmental consequences. According to population forecasts this situation will worsen in the coming years. It is therefore imperative that we understa ...
In the present climate of growing awareness about the dangers of global climate change, the development of new renewable energy technologies is primordial in the efforts to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Rapid increases in t ...
This paper presents the results of computational experiments where multi-objective algorithms were used to tune a controller for blind movements in a residential building and a room of the LESO (Solar Energy and Building Physics Laboratory) experimental bu ...
Current capabilities of Large-Eddy Simulation (LES) in Eulerian-Lagrangian studies of dispersed flows are limited by the modeling of the Sub-Grid Scale (SGS) turbulence effects on particle dynamics. These effects should be taken into account in order to re ...
Resources both physical and financial are scarce in most developing countries while environmental concerns are growing requiring a greater effort to rationally plan investments. Nowadays the methods for designing, planning and managing integrated energy sy ...
The reduction of CO2 emissions is a challenge for the coming decade, especially with the implementation of the Kyoto protocol. Since energy services (mainly heating and cooling of buildings) contribute to over 40% of the final energy consumption in a count ...
As our awareness of the dangers of global climate change grows, the development of new renewable energy technologies is of primary importance in the effort to reduce emissions of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. Rapid increases in the price of oi ...
This work discusses solar power towers and especially the simulation and optimization of heliostat fields. The technological stateof the art is given through typical characteristic values and dimensions of some existing central tower power plants such as t ...
The growth of InGaN quantum wells ( QWs) by metal-organic vapour phase epitaxy is investigated by atomic force microscopy ( AFM). It is shown that for low growth temperatures the surface morphology of the thin InGaN well layer ( 1.5 nm) exhibits a meanderi ...
