...Sunirmit Verma; Ranjan Das In this paper, wall thermal energy loss in a cylindrical solar pond is studied using one-dimensional (1D) and two-dimensional (2D) transient models. It is seen that for a given quantity of insulation applied around the pond wall, the negative effect of sidewall loss...

...M. Yakubu; S. Z. Shuja; B. S. Yilbas; M. Al-Qahtani A design configuration and selection of working fluid for solar absorption remain critical for high performance of energy harvesting process in solar pond. In this study, heating and pressure loss characteristics in a novel designed spiral-coil...

...Rohtash Goswami; Ranjan Das This paper describes an experimental study on a combined assembly of a solar pond and two-phase thermosyphon toward thermoelectric power generation under actual weather conditions and proposes its mandatory association with the biomass energy-based system. Experiments...
