Dust deposition on solar photovoltaic (PV) cell surface will significantly decrease the PV power efficiency, as transmittance of cells would be greatly decreased by deposited dust particles. This paper aims to study anti-dust performance super-hydrophilic coatings for with water spraying condition. The covering glass was treated and compared bare sample. It found that many particles adhere aggregate uncoated while are densely distributed. When process conducted, mass coated samples both...

When colloidal particles are deposited in a heat transfer channel, they increase the flow resistance resulting substantial decrease efficiency. It is critical to have comprehensive understanding of particle properties channels for practical engineering applications. This study employed Reynolds stress model (RSM) and discrete (DPM) simulate deposition 3D corrugated rough-walled channel. The turbulent diffusion was modeled with random walk (DRW). A user-defined function (UDF) created...

Increased battery energy density is required to boost electric vehicle endurance; however, this also raises the possibility of thermal runaway and power explosion. Improving cooling system performance requires optimization enhancement classical systems. Traditional design approaches struggle simultaneously enhance multiple aspects performance, while an based on Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) methods often inefficient. Therefore, by integrating a flow resistance network model (FRNM) with...

Abstract When the boiler is operated at different loads, characteristics of ash deposition in will change accordingly. In this paper, a 660MW tangentially fired power taken as research object. The combustion and on walls are studied by numerical simulation. results show that: 1) middle lower part furnace wall, more particles deposited, temperature higher CO concentration higher, so slagging easy to occur. 2) accumulation bottom hopper mainly comes from two layers burners for >98%. 3)...
