Nine Solar Electric Generation Systems (SEGS) built in southern California between 1984
and 1990 continue to produce 14-80 [MWe] of utility-scale electric power each from solar …

The present work investigates the feasibility of solar heating and cooling (SHC) absorption
systems based on combining three types of LiBr–H 2 O absorption chillers (single-, double …

Growing awareness of the potential environmental impacts of various refrigerants has led to
the phasedown of hydrofluorocarbon (HFC) refrigerants and to initiatives replacing HFCs …

The objective of this paper is to study a method to achieve sub-wet bulb temperature by
indirect evaporative cooling of air (without using a vapor compression machine). For this …

The modeling of the heating, ventilation, and air conditioning (HVAC) system is a prominent
