A mathematical model for multi-diffusive convection with Soret and Dufour effects is
developed to simulate the behavior of a salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP) in this study …

Transient evolution of thermal and salinity behaviors of two pilot salt-gradient solar ponds
with and without Paraffin Wax (PW) as the phase change material (PCM) were studied …

We consider three experimental small solar ponds (1 m× 1 m× 1 m) each pond contains one
of the following salts, namely NaCl, Na 2 CO 3 and CaCl 2 respectively. The thermal …

The impoverishment of our planet in non-renewable energies has incited researchers to
design salinity gradient solar ponds to collect and store solar energy at a lower cost. It is in …

Solar ponds are low-cost, large-scale solar collectors with integrated storage that can be
used as an energy source in many thermal systems. Experimental solar pond investigations …

Solar ponds are characterized by high storage capacity and the ability to provide a stable
and continuous power source. Careful selection of the extraction rate helps to maintain …

Salt‐gradient solar ponds (SGSPs) are water bodies that capture and accumulate large
amounts of solar energy. The design of an SGSP field has never been analyzed in terms of …

The study of transient pressure waves in both low-and high-frequency domains has become
a new research area to provide potentially high-resolution pipe fault detection methods. In …

In this paper, the energy and exergy distributions and efficiencies in the square solar ponds
have been investigated numerically and experimentally. For this purpose, a small scale …

In this paper, the temperature and concentration distributions in an insulated salinity
gradient solar pond are studied numerically in transient regime. The dimensionless …
