passive solar systems such as solar chimneys need solar radiation in order to work. therefore, they cannot present stable natural ventilation when solar energy vanishes: to have a more robust and stable condition, solar energy should be stored during the day and released back during the night. phase change materials can save additional thermal energy during the day and release it during the nig...

utilization of fossil fuel for supplying of requires energy of desalination systems is common. on the other hand, solar energy is one of the high-grade energies in the world that can be found specifically in hot weather places. therefore, utilization of solar energy for operation of desalination systems will reduce greenhouse gases and is a good alternative way. common exergy analysis method (s...

Energy is an indispensable factor for the economic growth and development of a country. Energy consumption is rapidly increasing worldwide. To fulfill this energy demand, alternative energy sources and efficient utilization are being explored. Various sources of renewable energy and their efficient utilization are comprehensively reviewed and presented in this paper. Also the trend in research ...

the our purpose of objective is evaluation and comparison the energy flow in wheat lands of cities in alborz province. we try to calculate the indexes of energy ratio, gross energy, specific energy, energy efficiency, energy intensity, total input and output energy. population of the study consisted of farmers of cities in alborz province in the year of 1391-92. it was a best way that we use po...

Hybrid utilization of renewable energy is one of effective method which can solve the problem that unstable of renewable energy so as not to substitute traditional fossil energy. As the typical renewable energy, solar energy and wind energy are in the van of renewable energy utilization. With the large scale utilization of solar and wind energy in the world, constructing large scale solar power...

This paper analyzes utilization of renewable energy systems and efficient building envelopes in the semi-arid climate. The proposed model evaluates renewable energy systems solutions as well as economic- and energy-efficient construction materials for the net zero-energy buildings (NZEB) in semi-arid climates. The objective of this paper is to optimize total energy cost and environmental impact...

Abstract Adding solar energy utilization equipment to an integrated system (IES) can improve the rate of renewable and reduce cost. The optimal operation strategy IES with photovoltaic thermal (PV-SH-IES) is investigated. efficiency variation CHP considered, results are compared analyzed. show that: IES, cost PV-SH-IES lower; it first falls then rises increment area ratio, ratio has value. impa...
