Effect of Land Use/Cover Changes on Urban Cool Island Phenomenon in Seville, Spain (2020)
Journal Article
Jadraque Gago, E., Etxebarria Berrizbeitia, S., Pacheco Torres, R., & Muneer, T. (2020). Effect of Land Use/Cover Changes on Urban Cool Island Phenomenon in Seville, Spain. Energies, 13(12), Article 3040. https://doi.org/10.3390/en13123040

This paper analyses Seville’s surface urban heat island (SUHI) phenomenon, comparing spatial and temporal patterns of land surface temperature (LST) during July 1987, 2000 and 2017. Landsat data captured throughout three July months were analyzed for... Read More about Effect of Land Use/Cover Changes on Urban Cool Island Phenomenon in Seville, Spain.

Efficient Routines for Obtaining Radiation View-Factor for Non-Uniform Horizons (2020)
Journal Article
Muneer, T., & Ivanova, S. (2020). Efficient Routines for Obtaining Radiation View-Factor for Non-Uniform Horizons. Energies, 13(10), Article 2551. https://doi.org/10.3390/en13102551

There are a large number of engineering applications wherein estimation of radiation exchange between surfaces is required. One important part of the latter procedure is to obtain the so-called ‘view factor’ of the emitter–receiver combination. The p...

Empirical Models for the Estimation of Solar Sky-Diffuse Radiation. A Review and Experimental Analysis (2020)
Journal Article
Berrizbeitia, S. E., Jadraque Gago, E., & Muneer, T. (2020). Empirical Models for the Estimation of Solar Sky-Diffuse Radiation. A Review and Experimental Analysis. Energies, 13(3), Article 701. https://doi.org/10.3390/en13030701

Accurate solar radiation data are essential for the development of solar energy application systems. The limited availability of solar radiation data, and especially diffuse irradiance values, makes it vital to develop models to estimate these data....
