  2. Pressure–volume diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Pressure–volume_diagram

    A PV diagram plots the change in pressure P with respect to volume V for some process or processes. Typically in thermodynamics, the set of processes forms a cycle, so that upon completion of the cycle there has been no net change in state of the system; i.e. the device returns to the starting pressure and volume.

  3. Floating solar - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Floating_solar

    Increased panel efficiency due to cooling: the cooling effect of the water close to the PV panels leads to an energy gain that ranges from 5% to 15%. [6] [35] [36] [37] Natural cooling can be increased by a water layer on the PV modules or by submerging them, the so-called SP2 (Submerged Photovoltaic Solar Panel). [38]

  4. Solar-powered pump - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_pump

    A PV solar-powered pump system has three main parts - one or more solar panels, a controller, and a pump.The solar panels make up most (up to 80%) of the system's cost. [citation needed] The size of the PV system is directly dependent on the size of the pump, the amount of water that is required, and the solar irradiance available.

  5. Solar-powered desalination unit - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar-powered_desalination...

    Indirect solar desalination systems comprise two sub-systems: a solar collection system and a desalination system. The solar collection system is used, either to collect heat using solar collectors and supply it via a heat exchanger to a thermal desalination process, or to convert electromagnetic solar radiation to electricity using photovoltaic cells to power an electricity-driven ...

  6. Saturation dome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saturation_Dome

    A saturation dome uses the projection of a P–v–T diagram (pressure, specific volume, and temperature) onto the P–v plane. The points that create the left-hand side of the dome represent the saturated liquid states, while the points on the right-hand side represent the saturated vapor states (commonly referred to as the “dry” region).

    Block diagram of a negative feedback control system used to maintain PV = SP Measurement of process variables is essential in control systems to controlling a process. The value of the process variable is continuously monitored so that control may be exerted.

  9. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The pressure on a pressure-temperature diagram (such as the water phase diagram shown above) is the partial pressure of the substance in question. A phase diagram in physical chemistry , engineering , mineralogy , and materials science is a type of chart used to show conditions (pressure, temperature, etc.) at which thermodynamically distinct ...
