talked about energy sources; solar and petrol. In the past several years‚ solar energy has been implemented in a wide variety of machineries; from calculators to automobiles‚ and it is considered as one of the most efficient source of power. Nevertheless‚ a number of people prefer petrol rather than solar for their source of fuel. What is the extent of the differences in those two inventions? Whereas petrol-powered cars are fueled by petrol‚

“I’d put my money on the sun and solar energy‚” stated Thomas Edison. Many people‚ including Thomas Edison‚ understood the value of solar energy. The use of solar energy has dated back to 700 B.C. Expenses for solar energy products are exceedingly high. Maintenance of solar powered utilities is virtually nonexistent. Solar products tend to be efficient in their work to make a clean planet. The function of a solar panel is to transform light into electricity. Solar panels can be used to power several

Photosynthesis simply means the conversion of light energy into chemical energy by living organisms. In photosynthesis‚ the raw materials are water and carbon dioxide. Energy is taken from sunlight and the end products give out glucose and oxygen. It is the most important‚ naturally occurring process

Solar Energy in Connecticut With politicians and scientists constantly publicizing global warming and the effects of climate change‚ our energy usage is rapidly becoming a major concern. Each state is slowly‚ but surely‚ moving towards cleaner energy such as wind or solar energy. However‚ almost every state has different terrains and therefore needs to figure out which source of energy is their best option. As an energy consultant‚ hired by Baker’s Energy Act‚ I recommend that Connecticut stops

From the viewpoint of Seitz (2008)‚ solar energy source is widely seen as one of solutions with the greatest potential. In modern technology‚ according to Fanchi (2005)‚ heating and cooling system and solar electric generating system are associated with the solar energy industry at present. For instance‚ that solar heating collector which belongs to heating and cooling system can transform radiant energy into heat energy by capturing sunlight. Moreover‚ solar electric generating system is divided

DESIGN AND FABRICATION OF SOLAR AIR HEATER Schematic view of experimental set-up EXPERIMENTAL SETUP Experimental set up Two solar air heaters (s1 and s2) of same specific dimensions have been designed and fabricated to supply hot air for drying and space heating. Both air heaters were experimentally tested individually for their thermal performance on different configurations. Plywood of 1 cm thickness was used for the fabrication of both solar air heaters
