The commercial solar cells are currently less efficient in converting solar radiation into
electricity. During electric power convention, most of the absorbed energy is dissipated to …

The aim of this investigation is to evaluate the recent advances in the field of solar
absorption cooling systems from the viewpoint of solar collector types. A review in the area …

A modelling methodology is developed and used to investigate the technoeconomic
performance of solar combined cooling, heating and power (S-CCHP) systems based on …

In this work, a single unit called photovoltaic thermal with solar thermal collector enhancer
has been developed, whose absorber plate is partially covered by photovoltaic cells. This …

This study numerically investigated the effect of applying different shapes of nanofluid-
conveying pipes on a thermal solar panel system. Two pipes with circular, elliptical, and …

This study provides an economic comparison between a vapor compression refrigeration
system powered by a photovoltaic array and a vapor absorption refrigeration system …

A large fraction of cooling demand depends on solar radiation intensity, therefore a strong
attention was directed toward solar cooling immediately after the 1973 energy crisis …

Solar thermal and Photovoltaic (PV) systems can save significant amount of non-renewable
energy that are utilized to satisfy the energy services for buildings. The falling prices of PV in …

Air-conditioning systems in Saudi Arabia consume approximately 65% of the electrical
energy used in the building sector. Most air-conditioning systems in operation are of the …

This paper assesses the challenges of alternative solar systems based on hybrid PVT
collectors coupled with an absorption chiller (AbCH, single-stage NH 3-H 2 O) in the food …
