Energy-harvesting sensor nodes (EHSNs) have stringent low-energy consumption requirements, but they need to concurrently execute several types of tasks (processing, sensing, actuation, etc). Furthermore, no accurate models exist to predict the energy harve ...
Today, energy saving is one of the main objectives for engineers. In the case of mobile applications, energy can be saved by two different ways. First, decreasing the total masse of the system, and second, increasing the efficiency of the overall system. T ...
It is widely accepted that adherence (which reports to what is measured when performing an adhesion test) of the encapsulant to the main substrates of the module plays a key role in the long term reliability of the PV module [1,2]. Consequently, adherence ...
Some layers of thin film photovoltaic modules maybe critically sensitive to moisture. In this study we present a new tool for monitoring the effect of moisture using a particular Transparent Conductive Oxide (TCO) as a sensor. The moisture content of the e ...
Due to their poor sizing, grid-connected photovoltaic systems often underexploit the capacity of the static inverter resulting in reduced efficiency and an increase in the cost of energy. The simulations performed in a previous phase of the project showed ...
The advantages and limitations of photovoltaic solar modules for energy generation are reviewed with their operation principles and physical efficiency limits. Although the main materials currently used or investigated and the associated fabrication techno ...
Poly (ethylene-co-vinyl acetate) (EVA) is the major polymer used for photovoltaic (PV) modules encapsulation. Its degree of cross-linking (related to its gel content) is taken as a major quality reference. Differential Scanning Calorimetry (DSC) has been p ...
Rapid urbanization in recent years has exerted tremendous pressure on urban development. In the face of the largely unexamined fashion for densification, it is vital that the environmental impact of compaction be researched. This study comprises solar simu ...
The integration of PV modules into platform canopies has several advantages: - Very large areas are available and just waiting to be used - These areas are nationally owned - There is maintenance personnel on-site - The areas are exposed to the view of num ...
