Impact of Reflectors on Solar Energy Systems
نویسندگان
چکیده
The paper aims to show that implementing different types of reflectors in solar energy systems, will dramatically improve energy production by means of concentrating and intensifying more sunlight onto a solar cell. The Solar Intensifier unit is designed to increase efficiency and performance of a set of solar panels. The unit was fabricated and tested. The experimental results show good improvement in the performance of the solar energy system. Keywords—Renewable Energy, Power optimization, Solar Energy.

Performance of Rotating Solar Still with Rotating External Reflectors (RESEARCH NOTE)
In this research, a rotating solar still that uses external bottom reflectors was experimentally investigated. The solar still and reflectors have the capability to shift their angle with respect to the south and the reflectors have the capability to shift their angle with respect to the horizon. The experiment has been performed in both fixed and rotating states. For the fixed state the solar ...

متن کاملIntegrated Unit Commitment and Natural Gas Network Considering the High Solar Penetration
In this paper, the integrated unit commitment problem and gas network operation in which in the presence of renewable wind and solar power plants is modeled. Both wind and solar energy are variable sources of energy, but because solar energy is only available at certain times of the day, it has caused the load curve behavior to change. This change in load curve, known as the "duck curve, has ra...
