Experimental and CFD Investigation of an ICSSWH at various inclinations. (2007)
Journal Article
Henderson, D., Junaidi, H., Muneer, T., Grassie, T., & Currie, J. (2007). Experimental and CFD Investigation of an ICSSWH at various inclinations. Renewable and Sustainable Energy Reviews, 11, 1087-1116. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.rser.2005.11.003

The integrated collector storage (ICS) is the type of solar water heater that has retained its existance for well over a century. The flat absorber plate ICS collector type is a relatively recent addition. Being effective, low cost and simple to manu...

An investigation of possible improvements in accuracy of regressions between diffuse and global solar irradiation. (2007)
Journal Article
Clarke, P., Munawwar, S., Davidson, A., Muneer, T., & Kubie, J. (2007). An investigation of possible improvements in accuracy of regressions between diffuse and global solar irradiation. Building Service Engineering Research and Technology, 28, 189-197. https://doi.org/10.1177/0143624407076907

Horizontal hourly and sub-hourly diffuse and beam irradiance are required for the estimation of global irradiance on a given tilted surface. This information is used by engineers and architects for various solar energy applications and also to calcul...
