3 Decades of Using Solar Systems for Heating Water

Solar systems were used in states "with a developed economy" still from many years ago.For example in U.S. solar systems that heat water were used 30 years before now.When I was born ,from almost 22 years ago, all the houses around Los Angeles have installed solar systems for water heating.Then started a period when this technology has decreased and started to disappear from the market but it seems that with this "global economic crisis" solar systems used for water heating occur again in order to reduce electricity consumption.This systems have to evolve and now is present in some word's deserts using the old principle of a solar-water-heating system.Some mirrors concentrate solar energy to an container with water, it Boil that water at a high temperature, producing steam that is taken by a turbine wich produces electricity.Those systems are known more briefly: Solar-Thermal Central.Those centrals could represent the future of this solar technology.The power give from this central is the most important thing, for example in California those solar centrals power 400,000 homes.An other similar system is the solar tower similar to solar-thermal central.This works like that: towers are surrounded by mirrors, transmitting energy to tower where it heats a special fluid, which moves a turbine connected to a generator.

Solar Energy:Mythology-Past.Technology-Present.Success-Future

The Sun is an important symbol in the mankind culture since from beginning.Many years ago (about 5000 years) Egyptians believed the sun is very important god named "Ra". The sun was called Shamash in Mesopotamia, he represents the supreme court power and justice.Nowadays the sun is seen not in the same way.He represents one of the factors without life could not be possible on earth, and he is also considered as a star (the nearest star).Solar systems found more often in people's homes, tend to cover the entire energy market in the alternative energy field.Personal i am a fan of these systems and I hope in a few years everyone could have access to these systems in order to create ecological Landscapes,green world and to reduce consumption power to 0, the disappearance of electricity bills.

NASA Anounces a Dangerous Solar Storm in the Next Period

Yesterday NASA has announced that the opportunity to see a solar storm is large and this storm could destroy many technological equipments launched in space.As we know U.S. technology has a great potential and could suffer large losses because of this event that it is possible to happen soon.The last solar storm was in 1959 and caused large distructions.Caused numerous fires, which led to a decrease of the social-economic power.Such storm is possible to do material damage worth 2 billion dollars, and could equally hav devastating effects as did Hurricane Katrina.Scientists focuses on understanding the events in space in order to prevent a possible disaster.

New Solar Refrigerator Cools Faster and Consume Less Energy

The cooling system that we use in our refrigerators at home require a lot of electricity and electricity as it is know today is quite expensive :D.For that reason some students from Chile have built a prototype that uses sunlight to make the cooling process.Classical cooling process used by now was based on the fact that turn liquid ammonia in the hydrogen gas and the evaporation of liquid ammonia in the presence of hydrogen gas produced the cooling.Those new refrigerators will function in other way:Is formed the next cycle : ammonia is sent in a cylinder which is filled with water, and the cylinder is heated by some powerfull solar panels.Ammonia liquid will vaporize from water and cause in contact with hydrogen gas,the cooling.Then by condensation the ammonia gas is sent back and in water.This cycle repeats, using solar energy, these refrigerators can work longer, more efficient, and with a reduced consumption of electricity.

Solar Panels combined with Melted Salts lead to a maximum capacity of Solar Energy Storage

As you can see from the last posts you may realize that I am one of those people that support the development of solar systems and try to make "light"in each project of this kind.In solar panels field, researchers have discovered a new technology that is combined with mineral salts, melted salts that could lead to some more advanced solar systems more effective.This new system is based on some mirrors attached in circles that have in the middle of them a reflector.Inside it this reflector has salts, which can reach a high temperature and then are transmitted to a turbine that produces electricity (used salts: potassium nitrate and sodium). Such systems have been used before, but their advantage is that cause replacement water with those salts could lead to a temperature of aproximately 390 degrees.This receptor is situated at the same level with the earth and the size of this receptor would reach a maximum limit(no size limit).Those solar systems are already available in stores from Spain and the researchers say that are much cheaper than other solar panels.

Sahara Desert Solar Power For Supply All World With Electricity

There are many countries that are producing electricity from solar radiation.In next several years it was proposed that the solar energy to be supplied from Sahara desert where they will install a lot of solar panels.Researchers will convince private companies that in sahara desert exist the greatest potential for solar energy and they want convince them to invest in installation of solar panels in that area.Is needed a large amount of money worth about 50 billion euros.The sun is twice powerful in sahara and this technology could work at maximum capacity.Tot such projects have been proposed for other countries with similar areas where no clouds covering the sky but rarely during the day (Dubai, Egypt, Morocco, Tunisia and Libya).

An Inexpensive Gadget that Will Heat Your Room and Will Reduce Electricity Bills

Such gadgets will appear more often in our homes.The energy received from the sun is the leading supplier of alternative energy on Earth.One of specialized soalr-gadget-construction companies wich create systems based on solar energy, has recently created a device that can warm a house entirely.In fact this device is similar to a solar panel with an mirror aspect that takes energy from the sun and sends to our rooms.Even this type of devices are expensive and most of them are use in cold areas of the planet, has shown that sales increased in the southern part of Europe where the climate is very hot.This device is based on a computer that monitors the temperature and adjust the temperature of the house after the human body temperature.It is similar to an solar air conditioning device.Water heating will be done with such a device connected to a large reservoir with water.The objective and advantage of this invention is that cause it reduce the unnecessary loss of energy and also reduce your electricity bills.

No More Energy Losses With Superconductors Technology

Researchers have discovered a material with the molecules that could be more efficient than superconductors, until now considered as one of biggest scientific discoveries.This type of superconductors are used in medical technology (doctors can see what happens inside the human body), but also in transportation industry.(were invented railways based on superconductors to eliminate the friction force). These superconductors operates at high temperatures, but the researchers think a way to adapt superconductors at room temperature in order to supply electricity to large scale.

Climate Cooling by Particle-Injection in Atmosphere Layers Could Reduce Solar Energy Radiation

According to a recently study, by adding the particles in the upper layers of the atmosphere the power from sun might increase by 5 times than normal.The main factor of global warming is represented by emission of carbon from burning fossil fuels (the main factor in climate change). One of researchers ideas on cooling climate is the injection of tiny particles in the stratosphere in order to complete "holes" from the upper ozone layer.This process can have a duration of two years because these particles are still difficult to set in the upper layers of the atmosphere.This process will lead to climate cooling and the sun light reception will be in greater quantities than usual.Future solar panels will work with directly-recived solar energy (solar panels must be mounted to allow direct sun rays reception).The disruptions from ozone layer will be resolved.For a greater capacity to store energy all the solar panels should use mirrors to concentrate solar radiation.Those solar panels that people own in households captures direct and spread energy and it is not a good thing for them, because these systems will be ineffective in the future...

Future Type of Batteries.Nanotech Batteries-Electricity From Alternative Sources

Batteries that are charged with electricity from alternative sources evolves more and more.Generally, this technology applied in the electric car domain is not efficient because the batteries "die" after a short time after a short distance and the loading process takes much(another disadvantage).Also those type of batteries are very expensive.In some cases these batteries are 10 times resistant than usual.Researchers developed a technology that improves the performance of these batteries through nanotechnology, using millions of nanostructures that allows the fastest electron moving.The dimensions of these nano-devices will be very small compared to those used by now.Such a device may have a size similar to a thin solar panel, which is more easily to attach on electric cars, for example, and as researchers say stores much more power and retain it for a long period.The objective of these batteries is to reach a high density of electrons.The output power will be much greater than ordinary batteries.

Solar Panel Built at Home With Only $ 100 Using Mini Solar Panels From Old Pocket Computers

I was thinking today at those pocket computers that we all have in our homes or at the work place.They,as you have seen,have a small space like a mirror, which captures light from the sun and then the computer works without batteries. I thought the next thing:I want to get that photovoltaic part from it and connect with much more same mini solar panels, together and form a panel of 1 square meter,similar to usual solar panel.



I'm curious how energy will provide that solar panel.Do you realize that such a panel will not require so much money .. I mean about $ 100(the cost of pocket computers wich i will buy), may even less.Anyway, compared to those expensive solar panels expensive (over $ 10,000) this is an insignificant amount of money.I will do the experiment and in one of the following posts i will present it.But, before I want some opinions or suggestions with how I should proceed ... if it is possible to build this "home made solar panel" or not.

Shell Has Abandoned ALL Projects Related to Reducing Pollution

Although the planet is trying to invest money in renewable energy Shell company has quit in more investment money for such projects.They say that in the next period will stop to invest more money because they considered that such development requires many money and more time.This could be a side effect of financial crisis?...This Dutch company has invested for the past few years large amounts of money(1.8 million dollars) for an expanded range of products related to renewable energy (solar panels, electric turbines, alternative fuels). It seems that"the energy for future" project was canceled and the company Shell will return among other companies that try to survive in this financial crisis.All this effort in these years is equal to 0 and we can say that the planet "has lost an investor in pollution reduction projects".

5 Best Ways to Power Your Hybrid Car

There are many ways to power your hybrid vehicle.Among the most important and most commonly used are:Batteries, Compressed Air, Hydrogen, Hydraulic Hybrids and Supercapacitors:

Robotic Fish Can Detect Water Pollution

Besides the scary look of this creature with big black eyes that we can see in the picture we can talk about first robotic fish that detects ocean,sea and other water pollution.This robot not only analyze and do some calculations in the binding of polluting substances, but has a natural look that no robot has by now.The length of this fish is one meter and a half and is very expensive to build(the amount is included somewhere in the $ 30,000). It is clear that such a project will remain as a prototype for the reason of money and will not be build in a big number.This robot is one of the best methods of monitoring and reporting water pollution around us.

New Liv Inizio Electric Vehicle Appears on the Market This Year

Liv Inizio Electric Vehicle is a hybrid made by company EV Innovations and is similar to Tesla Roadster project.The same company if you remember, launched last year on the market the Liv Wise electric model owned by Toyota.The capacities of those electric cars are stunning, reaching a speed of 60 miles in 5-6 seconds, even if its dimensions are much larger than the Tesla Roadser and the weight are much more bigger.The propulsion system of this car is manufactured by the same company and can be applied not only to electric cars.(bicycles, motorcycles and other electric vehicles).

2.5 Billion Dollars for Hybrid Cars Developement Obama Announced

Americans seem to start developing hybrid cars technology and other hybrid vehicles and also they allocate big funds for research in this domain.Yesterday the president of U.S,Obama, said in an interview that the state has allocated about 2.5 billion dollars for the development of hybrid cars technology.It is a good thing that such a project was started and is good for Americans that they have realized the potential of hybrid cars in the future, how important they are to reduce carbon emissions and for fuel economyi.Top of the best renewable energy producers is: Japan 1st place-manufacture of batteries, Germany 1st place-manufacture solar panels and Spain 1st place at produceing electricity from wind power.America seems like is collecting all these technologies and apply them in the hybrid car domain.Interesting...Isn't it? It's like others discover and develop new technologies and Americans bring the results of all work.A part of the money will be used only to demonstrate the capabilities and potential of these hybrid cars as a way of advertising fot the future products and the remaining money will be used in the manufacture of hybrid cars.Not only that!The state will build loading stations for hybrid cars and develop them to be more and more advanced.

Solar Powered "Saylor Sky" Plane Could get on Mars

Saylor Sky is an airplane which is powered with solar energy and researchers say that it could get to Mars or other unexplored planets.Small dimenssions make this plane to not be used on people transport.On side wings are installed solar cells , solar panels that can keep it on air for a long period of time without any electric energy source.This experiment was made by the Swiss researchers who could see how the plane was kept in air alone about 26 hours at a height of 700 meters.This small plane could be used in many areas such as espionage or defend a target(with some video cameras attached to it). With the passage of time, if solar panels could become more powerful, could be the problem using the same technologies for planes that transport people or other things.Nowadays solar panels energy storage capacity is limited but does not preclude a fast evolution and then we can apply them to obtain much higher performance in all areas of acivity.

First Super Hybrid Car with Shocking Aspect

The decrease process of pollutant gases emissions lead to appearances of newer and advanced hybrid cars.Without the scorpion appearance of this car we have a lot of discussion on the qualities of the engine, the emission of polluting gases, power and speed.Ideea which started to build this car is primarily reducing the amount of polluting gases in the atmosphere and fuel economy.This project replace failing inner aspect of hybrid cars with an engine with more power than ever and a low consumption.

The speed compared to other electric cars is 30% rised, the weight is only 2200 kg and reported to the electric motor(similar to a V6),the car weight is acceptable.

Air Conditioner Device that Uses Solar Energy

Were recently presented several projects related to an air conditioner more efficient and environmentally friendly than those usual found in people homes.Nowadays this project was launched on the new air conditioning system market.This system does not require a large amount of water to adjust the air temperature and composition in our homes and also uses solar panels to work.Is named Chromas.
This system uses photovoltaic and termal cells that retain solar energy for heating process.Usual solar cells used in most of our homes retain only 24% light transmitted by the sun to those cells that reach up to 76% solar energy storage capacity.Heating water is also much easier because solar panels that are attached and also because some tubes of oil heated by the sun at a temperature of 230 Celsius degrees.
Those special solar panels uses 90 percent less energy for heating water or to adjust the air in the room after your wish.Now, this solar air conditioning wich work on solar panels is only a prototype but at the beginning of next year will be accessible to all who will need it.
