- Switzerland : Springer International Publishing, 2019.
- 1 online resource (xi, 544 p. col. ill.)
- Green Energy and Technology .
In this book, the global solar resource will be briefly presented and the currently available solar systems will be illustrated. A number of advanced energy efficiency technologies, including heat pipes and loop heat pipes, PCM and PCM slurries, micro (mini)-channel panels, building integrate-able modular technologies, desiccant (adsorption and absorption) cycling, ejector cooling, heat pumps, as well as solar concentration and thermoelectric technologies will then be studied and characterised. Meanwhile, the applications of these technologies in various solar systems will be investigated. With the successful implementation of these advanced technologies, a few innovative solar systems applicable to rural and urban buildings are characterised. Based on the above analyses, the design principle and associated energy performance assessment method for these advanced solar systems will be delivered, while the associated economic and environmental performance analytic
measures will also be discussed. In the end, a range of selected solar heating, cooling and power generation projects will be studied.
