  • Performance and Operational Effectiveness of evacuated flat plate solar collectors compared with conventional thermal, PVT and PV panels
    'Elsevier BV', 2018
    Co-Authors: Moss, Roger W., Henshall P., Arya F., Shire G. S. F., Hyde T., Eames P. C.
    Abstract:

    The concept of an evacuated flat plate (EFP) collector was proposed over 40 years ago but, despite its professed advantages, very few manufacturers have developed commercial versions. This situation suggests both technical difficulties in manufacturing a competitively-priced sealed for life panel and a lack of awareness of the bene fits of such panels. This paper demonstrates an evacuated flat plate simulation that closely models experimental efficiency measurements. Having established the validity of the model, it compares published data for a commercial EFP collector with predictions for an optimal design to investigate whether any further efficiency improvement might be possible. The optimised design is then evaluated against alternative solar energy devices by modelling a number of possible applications. These comparisons should inform choices about solar options for delivering heat: EFP collectors are well-suited to some of these applications. Evacuated flat plate collectors are a possible alternative to concentrating collectors for Organic Rankine Cycle power generation. The annual output for all the modelled collectors was found to be a quadratic function of delivery temperature: this enabled a novel optimisation of ORC source temperature. Predictions for concentrating and non-concentrating ORC plant are compared with a PV/thermal alternative. The ORC output is significantly less than a PV panel would achieve; applications needing both heat and power are better served by PVT panels. This is an original and novel result

  • evaluation method of weapon equipment Operational Effectiveness based on extensive bayesian algorithm fusion
    Computer Simulation, 2007
    Co-Authors: Wang Weiping
    Abstract:

    It is a right way to improve the credibility of evaluation results of the weapon equipment Operational Effectiveness(WEOE) by means of correcting and fusing the data from many viewpoints.At the stage of the equipment demonstration,the data of evaluation mainly come from expert belief and simulation results,but these data can not be directly used to evaluate the WEOE because these two kinds of data are very different in form and in attribute.And therefore,the Belief Map Expression mode was put forth to uniform the expression of these different data,and an extensive Bayesian Pattern was made to fuse the different evaluation data so as to get the final evaluation results of the WEOE.By means of above method,an example about the improved types of armored equipments were evaluated on their Operational Effectiveness,and the evaluation results show that this method is fit for the practical equipments demonstration,so it is a new promising method.
