Page 492 - Program Solicitation for Research on Subsystems and Systems for the Application of Solar Energy to the Heating and Cooling of Buildings was given wide distribution in FY 1974 and nearly 500 formal proposals for innovative research were received and evaluated by the Foundation . After careful screening of...
Page 25 - The Panel was charged with assessing the potential of solar energy as a national energy resource and the state of the technology in the various solar energy application areas, and with recommending necessary research and development programs to develop the potential in those areas considered important. The scope of the Panel's activities was defined to include all applications of direct solar energy, as well as power...
Page 218 - ... work. This small 4x4 foot unit can produce 80 Ib. of ice on a good day. It should be pointed out again that all the applications mentioned so far did not require concentration of solar energy, and therefore could utilize the diffuse portion of solar energy and even work on cloudy days.
Page 216 - Ml of each plate is showing the other % shaded by the plate above. They are put into a glass covered box. The air will enter this unit on the bottom and then streaming between the hot plates will pick up the heat and leave on top as hot air. The circulation can be produced either...
Page 224 - Figure 41 shows a solar pump model, in this case, made out of glass so that its operation can be observed. It only has two check valves and otherwise, no moving parts. A boiler is connected by a straight and a U-shaped tube to a chamber with check valves at the inlet and outlet. The liquid in the boiler is vaporized, pushing liquid out of the system, and when the vapor reaches the bottom of the U -tube, it suddenly streams into the other chamber filled with cold liquid, where the steam rapidly condenses.

Page 226 - Indiscriminate use of these resources for energy is unwise and a serious loss to future generations. Acknowledgements The Solar Energy and Energy Conversion Laboratory of the University of Florida was used as the basis for this paper but credit must be given to the many laboratories around the world and individuals who are engaged in the effort to utilize solar energy for the betterment of mankind. Their work supports ours through ideas and results as our work is helpful to them.
