This handbook aims at providing a comprehensive resource on solar
energy. Primarily intended to serve as a reference for scientists,
students and professionals, the book, in parts, can also serve as a
text for undergraduate and graduate course work on solar energy.
The book begins with availability, importance and applications of
solar energy, definition of sun and earth angles and classification
of solar energy as thermal and photon energy. It then goes onto
cover day lighting parameters, laws of thermodynamics including
energy and exergy analysis, photovoltaic modules and materials, PVT
collectors, and applications such as solar drying and distillation.
Energy conservation by solar energy and energy matrices based on
overall thermal and electrical performance of hybrid system are
also discussed. Techno-economic feasibility of any energy source is
the backbone of its success and hence economic analysis is covered.
Some important constants, such as exercises and problems increase
the utility of the book as a text.
Constant improvements in technological applications have allowed
for more opportunities to develop automated systems. This not only
leads to higher success in smart data analysis, but also ensures
that technological progression will continue. Ubiquitous Machine
Learning and its Applications is a pivotal reference source for the
latest research on the issues and challenges machines face in the
new millennium. Featuring extensive coverage on relevant areas such
as computational advertising, software engineering, and
bioinformatics, this publication is an ideal resource for
academicians, graduate students, engineering professionals, and
researchers interested in discovering how they can apply these
advancements to various disciplines.
This monograph focuses on a case study of a newly constructed
passive cooled four-story building in a composite (monsoon)
climate. The total initial embodied energy, CO2 emissions, annual
energy saving and CO2 credit of the building were evaluated as part
of the case study.
