RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Study the Solar Water Heating System TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : In a “close-coupled” SWH system the storage tank is horizontally mounted immediately above the solar collectors on the roof. No pumping is required as the hot water naturally rises into the tank through thermosiphon flow. In a […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Study the Solar Pump Test Rig TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : Solar Photovoltaic array mounting structure suitable for mounting the SPV module is supplied. The pump is erected with HDPE pipe of suitable length cables and interconnecting wires as required for installation is supplied suitable box for housing […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Measure solar radiation flux density. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : A pyranometer is a sensor based on thermopiles designed to measure the broadband of the solar radiation flux density from a 180° field of view angle. It Consist of a thermocouple junction connected in series as sensing element. […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Measure solar radiation flux density. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : A photodiode-based pyranometer can detect the portion of the solar spectrum between 400 nm and 900 nm, with the most performant detecting between 350 nm and 1100 nm. The photodiode converts the aforementioned solar spectrum frequencies into current […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Measure solar radiation flux density. TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : Photovoltaic pyranometer is a derivation of the photodiode pyranometer . this pyranometer is also known as “reference PV cell”, “irradiance sensor”, “solarimeter”, “solar sensor” . The active part of the sensor is composed of a photovoltaic cell working […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Measure direct beam Solar Irradiance TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : A pyrheliometer is an instrument for measurement of direct beam solar irradiance. Sunlight enters the instrument through a window and is directed onto a thermopile which converts heat to an electrical signal that can be recorded. The signal […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To Measure the amount of liquid precipitation over a set period of time TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : This Rain Gauge is manufactured as per IS:5235:1969 and manufactured from fiberglass rain forced plastic which is non corrosive Container is assembled with Gun-metal Ring and Locking arrangements. DIMENSIONS AND WEIGHT […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To study the wind turbine system TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : A wind turbine is a device that converts the wind’s kinetic energy into electrical power. The term appears to have been adopted from hydroelectric technology (rotary propeller). The technical description of a wind turbine is aerofoil-powered generator. Horizontal-axis […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To study the Hybrid power generator system TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : The hybrid energy system is a photovoltaic array coupled with a wind turbine.[1] This would create more output from the wind turbine during the winter, whereas during the summer, the solar panels would produce their peak output. […]
RANGE OF EXPERIMENTS TO BE CARRIED OUT: 1. To study the Biomass gasifier TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION : Biomass gasification is a process of converting solid biomass fuel into a gaseous combustible gas (called producer gas) through a sequence of thermo-chemical reactions. It was designed primarily for woody biomass, but can handle many different feedstocks if they […]
