Journal ArticleDOI
Energy and parametric analysis of solar absorption cooling systems in various Moroccan climates
Y. Agrouaz,Y. Agrouaz,T. Bouhal,T. Bouhal,Amine Allouhi,Tarik Kousksou,Abdelmajid Jamil,Youssef Zeraouli +7 more
TL;DR: In this article, the authors investigated the energetic performance of a solar cooling system using absorption technology under Moroccan climate and found that the system operating in Errachidia showed the best average annual solar fraction (of 30%) and COP (of 0.33) owing to the high solar capabilities of this region.
Journal ArticleDOI
PCM addition inside solar water heaters: Numerical comparative approach
TL;DR: In this article, two numerical codes were built to predict the temperature evolution in a storage tank simulation filled by spherical PCM modules for solar hot water production, and the results showed that the choice of a numerical method plays an important role in describing efficiently the phase change phenomena and system thermal performance.
