3. Photovoltaic thermal hybrid solar collector - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_thermal...

   Solar process heat includes a diverse range of industrial applications with low to high temperature requirements (e.g. solar water desalination, solar cooling, or power generation with concentrating PVT collectors). Depending on the type of heat transfer fluid, PVT collector technologies are suited for several applications: [20]

4. Solar panel - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_panel

   Solar panels are also known as solar cell panels, solar electric panels, or PV modules. Solar panels are usually arranged in groups called arrays or systems . A photovoltaic system consists of one or more solar panels, an inverter that converts DC electricity to alternating current (AC) electricity, and sometimes other components such as ...

5. Photovoltaic system - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Photovoltaic_system

   A photovoltaic system, also called a PV system or solar power system, is an electric power system designed to supply usable solar power by means of photovoltaics.It consists of an arrangement of several components, including solar panels to absorb and convert sunlight into electricity, a solar inverter to convert the output from direct to alternating current, as well as mounting, cabling, and ...

6. Solar water heating - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_heating

   An advertisement for a Solar Water Heater dating to 1902 Frank Shuman's sunengine on the March 1916 cover of Hugo Gernsback's The Electrical Experimenter. Records of solar collectors in the United States date to before 1900, [5] involving a black-painted tank mounted on a roof. In 1896 Clarence Kemp of Baltimore enclosed a tank in a wooden box ...

7. Solar-assisted heat pump - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-assisted_heat_pump

   The operating conditions' optimization of this system is the main challenge, because there are two opposing trends of the performance of the two sub-systems: by way of example, decreasing the evaporation temperature of the working fluid increases the thermal efficiency of the solar panel but decreases the performance of the heat pump, and consequently the COP. [4]

8. Passive solar building design - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Passive_solar_building_design

   The scientific basis for passive solar building design has been developed from a combination of climatology, thermodynamics (particularly heat transfer: conduction (heat), convection, and electromagnetic radiation), fluid mechanics/natural convection (passive movement of air and water without the use of electricity, fans or pumps), and human ...
