Solar concentrating power is one of the most promising ways of producing clean electricity
by utilizing the incident solar irradiation on the earth. Linear Fresnel reflector (LFR) is one of …

Desalination is a tried-and-true method for obtaining clean water from the ocean's brackish
waters and recycling and reusing water. It requires a fair amount of energy, so it is necessary …

Solar energy utilization is vital in order to achieve the sustainability and reduce the utilization
of conventional energy sources. The use of nanofluids in concentrating solar collectors is a …

The objective of this work is to investigate the yearly performance an absorption-
compression cascade refrigeration system driven by solar energy. Different operating …

In this paper, a mechanical compression heat pump was coupled into the water-heated
humidification dehumidification (HDH) desalination system, in which the condenser is …

This paper aims to examine the optical behavior of a small experimental setup for linear
Fresnel reflector. The setup was built and tested as a water heater at University of Blida …

Microchannel membrane-based absorption refrigeration system (MMARS) shows its
advantages in efficiency and compactness over the conventional absorption refrigeration …

Multi-effect distillation is often integrated with a Rankine power cycle for cogeneration
(simultaneous production of power and desalinated water). Such integration increases the …

In this paper, experimental tests of a hybrid trigeneration pilot unit based on renewable
energy sources are presented and analyzed. The plant provides electricity by coupling four …
