This paper discusses theoretical and indoor experimental studies of a bi-fluid type
photovoltaic/thermal PV/T solar collector. 2D steady-state analysis was developed and …

Gas-phase solar receivers use atmospheric or pressurised gas as their heat transfer fluid
(HTF). The ideal gas-phase receiver would provide high thermal efficiency and high HTF …

When the availability of solar radiation is not enough to develop experimental investigation
in the field of concentrating solar energy, solar simulators are a widely employed solution …

The positioning and type of double-glazing layers effectively regulate heat gain and heat
loss during both summer and winter seasons. This study aims to evaluate the thermal …

Although the energy efficiency of light shelves has been studied, the thermal effects due to
reflected solar radiation from light shelves have yet to be adequately investigated in …

In recent decades, solar energy has emerged as the most promising renewable energy
source and the best alternative to conventional energy due to its abundant availability, free …

Due to the depletion of fossil fuels, cost-effective and efficient alternate energy resources are
a major topic of research nowadays. Solar energy is one of the renewable energy sources …
