Effect of electrostatic stabilization on thermal radiation transfer in nanosuspensions: Photo-thermal energy conversion applications
(Elsevier, 2018-04)
Solar thermal collectors are among the most important photo-thermal energy conversion systems. Effectiveness of these systems is measured by the ability of working fluid to absorb incident radiative energy. Although ...
Spectrally selective filter design for passive radiative cooling
(The Optical Society, 2020-04-01)
Radiative cooling is potentially one of the most innovative approaches to reducing energy density in buildings and industry, as well as achieving higher levels of energy efficiency. Several studies have reported the design ...
Radiative energy and exergy analyses of spectrally-selective surfaces for CSP systems
(Inderscience Enterprises Ltd., 2018)
This work presents a new methodology for calculations of spectral radiative energy and radiative exergy to evaluate the performances of concentrated solar power (CSP) systems. Spectral radiative properties and the operating ...
Segregated approach for the modeling of continuous heat treatment furnaces
(Begell House Inc., 2019-06)
Accurate modeling of the transient material temperature distribution inside the continuous heat treatment furnaces are very critical in terms of adjusting the process parameters of the furnace operations. In this study the ...
Materials for radiative cooling: a review
(Elsevier, 2017)
Buildings use more than one-third of the total energy consumed in counties within the Mediterranean climate zones like in Turkey. During the summer months, the absorption of solar energy by the buildings increases the ...
Image registration method for mobile-device-based multispectral optical diagnostics for buildings
(The Optical Society, 2019-09-10)
The recent advances in mobile device hardware and software introduced new opportunities to perform more advanced computation and measurements for buildings. Multispectral optical imaging is a widely recognized technique ...
Control of near-field radiative heat transfer via surface phonon-polariton coupling in thin films
(Springer Business+Media, 2011-06)
The possibility of controlling near-field radiative heat transfer with the use of silicon carbide thin films supporting surface phonon–polaritons in the infrared spectrum is explored. For this purpose, the local density ...
Thermal analysis of perlite-reinforced concrete panels at varying moisture contents
(Begell House Inc., 2020)
Research on composite materials to be used in building insulation is presented. Building energy efficiency gained much broader significance following the COP 21 Paris agreement. In light of this outcome, this study focuses ...
