Question 2 Portugal has a typical insolation of 1000 W/m2. A solar PV plant located there has an output of 11 MWp. Since the collectors track the sun, the power output is steady at 11 MW from 09:00 to 16:00 Hrs and almost zero outside this time. The lifetime of the system is 20 years with an annual operating cost and total capital investment of €1 million and €75 million, respectively. The cost of capital is 7% p.a. The efficiency...
Consider an ocean-facing room in a high-rise building (L/W of 1). The ocean-facing wall (with window) is 10m by 4 m, contains two windows (3m by 1m, each). Assume the room is located 30 m above the neutral pressure level and the inside air temperature is maintained at 24°C with RH of 50%. Outside air is of 35°C with RH of 60%. Assume the convective heat transfer coefficients on inner side and outer side of the wall and window are 0.5 and...

The rear window of an automobile is defogged by attach ing a thin, transparent, film-type heating element to its inner surface. By electrically heating this element, a uni- form heat flux may be established at the inner surface For 4-mm-thick window glass, determine the electrical power required per unit window area to maintain arn inner surface temperature of 15°C when the interior air temperature and convection coefficient are To 25°C and hi = 10...

Problems 1. A window pane (1/8 inch thick) in an old house owned by a professor is 3 ft. by 4 ft. He likes to be warm in the winter so the inside temperature is kept at 70 °F even when the outside temperature is 10 •F. For this problem assume the inside and outside temperatures are for the window surface. How much heat is transferred through the window (k=.54 BTU/hr ft ° F)? 2. A small heated...
Consider the following experimental system: 1. Three squared plates with cross section of 150 mm and various thicknesses as describes below (in [mm]) lay on top of each other and heated on the bottom side of the lowest plate. The plates are isolated from all the sides apart from the top side. The plates are made of different materials: Aluminum (6061), Stainless steel (304) and regular window glass. On the bottom side of the lowest plate a heating element that...
