Performance Comparison of Diesel and Solar Photovoltaic Power Systems for Water Pumping in Saudi Arabia
Shafiqur Rehman,Ahmet Z. Sahin +1 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated and compared the performance of diesel and solar PV stand-alone power generating systems for underground water pumping purposes in five different geographic locations in Saudi Arabia, namely, Dhahran, Riyadh, Jeddah, Guriat and Nejran.
Journal ArticleDOI
Extreme Temperature Trends on the West Coast of Saudi Arabia
TL;DR: In this paper, the extreme temperature trends are analyzed for a meteorological data collection station in Jeddah, Saudi Arabia over approximately last four decades stretching between years 1970 and 2006, and the long-term change in temperature has been assessed by Mann-Kendell rank statistics and linear trend analysis.
Journal ArticleDOI
Performance Evaluation of a PV Module under Climatic Conditions of Dhahran, Saudi Arabia
TL;DR: In this paper, the performance characteristics of a photovoltaic (PV) module are modeled numerically and validated experimentally for the typical climatic conditions of Dhahran, Saudi Arabia.
Journal ArticleDOI
Effect of steel manufacturing process and atmospheric corrosion on the corrosion-resistance of steel bars in concrete
Mohammad Maslehuddin,M. M. Al-Zahrani,Salah U. Al-Dulaijan,Abdulquddus,Shafiqur Rehman,S.N Ahsan +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of steel manufacturing process and surface condition of reinforcing steel on their corrosion-resistance when embedded in concrete was evaluated by measuring corrosion potentials and corrosion current density.
Journal ArticleDOI
Empirical correlation between hub height and local wind shear exponent for different sizes of wind turbines
Shafiqur Rehman,Shafiqur Rehman,Luai M. Al-Hadhrami,Md. Mahbub Alam,Md. Mahbub Alam,Josua P. Meyer +5 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors proposed a new correlation for the estimation of optimal hub height for harnessing the power of the wind on an economically competitive basis, and the optimal hub heights for Dhahran, Dhulom, Gassim, Juaymah and Rawdat Ben Habbas were found to be 64, 66, 81, 70 and 82 m, respectively.
