DAYANAND, A., AYKAPADATHU, M., SELLAMI, N. and NAZARINIA, M. 2020. Experimental investigation of a novel absorptive/reflective solar concentrator: a thermal analysis. Energies [online], 13(5), article ID e1281. Available from: https://doi.org/10.3390/en13051281

This paper presents the experimental investigation of a novel cross-compound parabolic concentrator (CCPC). For the first time, a CCPC module was designed to simultaneously work as an electricity generator and collect the thermal energy present in th...

The accumulation of soiling on photovoltaic (PV) modules affects PV systems worldwide. Soiling consists of mineral dust, soot particles, aerosols, pollen, fungi and/or other contaminants that deposit on the surface of PV modules. Soiling absorbs, sca...
