Renewable energy forecasting is crucial for integrating variable energy sources into the grid.
It allows power systems to address the intermittency of the energy supply at different …

This paper reports a review of various methods of solar tracking with gains in energy due to
tracking and different MPPT algorithms. The fossil fuels are non-renewable, limited and …

Central receiver systems are considered one of the most efficient ways to harness solar
thermal energy. A significant component of these systems is a heliostat field which accounts …

Predicting the rail temperature of a railway system is important for establishing a rail
management plan against railway derailment caused by orbital buckling. The rail …

This work is the result of a study of a photovoltaic/thermal air collector that concentrates solar
radiation using two mobile mirrors to enhance electrical and thermal energy. The study is …

The photovoltaic (PV) system with an East-West sun tracker can obtain 10-35% additional
radiant energy, compared with optimally tilted fully static arrays. The relationship between …

The shading and blocking factor plays a significant role in the design of a heliostat field. It is
the most computationally expensive task during the optimization process of a heliostat field …

In railway-safety management, the rail temperature, which directly affects the buckling of a
rail, is very important. Train companies have been measuring rail temperature directly to …

This study compares control systems applied to a dual-axis tetrahedron-based sensor
tracker. A tetrahedron-based sensor is a tracking sensor that can detect the coordinates of a …
