Performance evaluation of electric vehicle ventilation using directly powered photovoltaic fans (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kolhe, M. L., Muneer, T., Adhikari, S. K., & Smith, I. (2015). Performance evaluation of electric vehicle ventilation using directly powered photovoltaic fans. . https://doi.org/10.1109/ITEC-India.2015.7386939

Electric vehicles have tremendous potential for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. One of the main draw-back of the electric vehicle though is the sourcing of energy for air-conditioning of its cabin space. In this work, a fully instrumented Renault...

Investigating the Impact of Ground Albedo on the Performance of PV Systems (2015)
Presentation / Conference Contribution
Kotak, Y., Gul, M. S., Muneer, T., & Ivanova, S. M. (2015). Investigating the Impact of Ground Albedo on the Performance of PV Systems.

Several factors influence the energy generation of Photovoltaic (PV) installations. A ground albedo value of 0.2 is widely accepted and is used in modelling of PV systems. Foreground surfaces may have different albedo and hence a constant albedo valu... Read More about Investigating the Impact of Ground Albedo on the Performance of PV Systems.
