Solar PV technology Solar PV technology converts energy from solar radiation directly into electricity. Solar PV cells are the electricity-generating component of a solar energy system. When sunlight (photons) strikes a PV cell, an electric current is produced by stimulated electrons (negative charges) in a layer in the cell designed to lose electrons easily. The existing electric field in the solar cell pulls these electrons to another layer. By connecting the cell to an external load, this current (movement of charges) can then be used to power the load (e.g., as in a light bulb). A photovoltaic power station, also known as a solar park, is a large-scale photovoltaic system (PV) designed for the supply of merchant power into the electricity grid. Most solar parks use ground mounted (sometimes called free-field or stand-alone) arrays. They can either be fixed tilt or tracking, either single axis or dual axis. Tracking increases the output, but also the installation and maintenance cost. The DC power output of the solar arrays is converted to AC by inverters, and connection to the grid is through a high voltage three phase step up transformer, usually to 10 kV or above 1.1 Composition of a PV system Figure 1 Composition of a PV system A typical PV system is made up of several key components ( figure 1) , including: . PV modules, made of cells . Inverter . Transformer . Balance-of-system (BOS) component Optionally, a photovoltaic system may include any or all of the following: renewable energy credit revenue-grade meter, maximum power point tracker (MPPT), battery system and charger, GPS solar tracker, energy management software, solar concentrators, solar 2 irradiance sensors, anemometer, or task-specific accessories designed to meet specialized requirements for a system owner. 1.1.1 Photovoltaic modules The diagram (figure 2) illustrates the operation of a basic photovoltaic cell, also called a solar cell. Solar cells are made of the same kinds of semiconductor materials, such as silicon, used in the microelectronics industry. For solar cells, a thin Figure 2 Generation of electricity from a PV cell ( Source: EPA) semiconductor wafer is specially treated to form an electric field, positive on one side and negative on the other. When light energy strikes the solar cell, electrons are knocked loose from the atoms in the semiconductor material. If electrical conductors are attached to the positive and negative sides, forming an electrical circuit, the electrons can be captured in the form of an electric current -- that is, electricity. 3 Figure 3 Outline of a PV Cell A number of solar cells electrically connected to each other and mounted in a support structure or frame is called a photovoltaic module( figure 4) . Modules are designed to supply electricity at a certain voltage, such as a common 12 volts system. The current produced is directly dependent on how much light strikes the module. Multiple modules can be wired together to form an array. In general, the larger the area of a module or array, the more electricity will be produced. Photovoltaic modules and arrays produce direct-current (dc) electricity. They can be connected in both series and parallel electrical arrangements to produce any required voltage and current combination Module technologies are differentiated by the type of PV material used, resulting in a range of conversion efficiencies from light energy to electrical energy. The module efficiency is a measure of the percentage of solar energy converted into electricity. Most solar cells are currently produced from silicon, which is abundant and nontoxic. This technology has been demonstrated for a consistent and high efficiency over 30 years in the field. The performance degradation, a reduction in power generation due to long-term exposure, is under 1% per year. Silicon modules have a lifespan in the 25- to 30-year range but can keep producing energy beyond this range. Typical overall efficiency of silicon solar panels is between 12% and 18%( Table 1). However, some manufacturers of mono-crystalline panels claim an overall efficiency nearing 20%. This range of efficiencies represents significant variation among the crystalline silicon technologies available. The technology is generally divided into mono- and multi-crystalline technologies, which indicates the presence of grain-boundaries (i.e., multiple crystals) in the cell materials, and it is controlled by raw material selection and manufacturing technique. 4 Table 1 Efficiency range of different types of PV cell The four general types of photovoltaic cells are: Monocrystalline silicon. Polycrystalline silicon (also known as multicrystal silicon). Amorphous silicon (abbreviated as "aSi," also known as thin film silicon) Multi-junction cells 1. Monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells Monocrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells are the oldest form of photovoltaic cells and have the highest conversion efficiency among all commercial photovoltaic cells today, but they require thinly sliced silicon of high purity. They need energy and capital investment to produce monocrystalline silicon, which boosts its price. Figure 4 Monocrystalline cell 2. Polycrystalline silicon photovoltaic cells The difference is that a lower cost silicon is used. While their heat conversion efficiency falls short of monocrystalline cells, they are inexpensive and thus are the current mainstream. Figure 5 Polycrystalline cell 5 3. Thin-film silicon photovoltaic cells These are photovoltaic cells produced by depositioning silicon film onto substrate glass. While the cost is kept low because less silicon is used compared to crystalline types, conversion is less efficient than crystalline types. But efficiency can be improved by layering several cells and generating power from each one (multijunction); something that can only be done using thin-film types. Disadvantages include higher manufacturing costs, lower efficiency, and greater corresponding space needed for energy equivalency. Thin-film modules basically include three technological benefits when compared to crystalline modules; firstly, they use sunlight more efficiently at low levels of sun irradiation; secondly, they have lower temperature coefficients, i.e., their power output does not drop as quickly when they get hot. Thirdly, thin-film modules may be produced in a continuous manufacturing process, resulting in significant benefits in terms of manufacturing technology. The greater need for space in comparison with modules employing crystalline Si solar cells is a significant reason why thin-film solar modules in utility-scale PV play only

[email protected] Abstract A case study was carried out to see the impacts of shrimp culture on the surface (pond) and ground water (tube-well) quality in three coastal sub-districts of Bagherhat Sadar, Rampal and Morrelganj of Bangladesh. The people of Rampal (100%), Morrelgonj (87.5%) and Bagherhat (75.5%) expressed that salinity of both surface and ground water increased for shrimp culture, and water becomes more turbid, odorous and less tasty compare to pre-shrimp culture scenario. The ground water pH was found to little acidic (6.07– 6.71) but the surface water was mild alkaline in nature (7.00–7.46). Ground water was more saline (1893.12–2673.33 ppm) than surface water (513.31-2253.33 ppm). Potassium level of surface water was very high (97.75-242.42 ppm) compare to ground water (11.73- 27.37 ppm), which exceeds the WHO Guideline Value (10 ppm) and Bangladesh Standard for Drinking Water (12.0 ppm). The pollution level of phosphorous and iron was found to little higher but other pollutants like nitrate, boron and zinc was found to very low in surface and ground water in the shrimp culture area of Bangladesh.

Mashhad, I.R. Iran [email protected] Received: 15/3/2012, Accepted: 25/04/2012 Abstract Sand dune habitats in desert regions have harsh conditions for plant establishment and survival. Ammo- dendron persicum, an psamophyte shrub plant belongs to Leguminosae family, which grows over the desert sand dunes of Zirkohgaen, Gezik and Khash along east part of Iran. Recognizing the adaptive fea- tures of the plant species may help towards its conservation and introducing to other sand dune habitats. Therefore, the morphological characteristics of root and shoot, root distribution and forms of regenera- tion of the species were studied. Observations revealed that each individual plant has a deep taproot along with lateral roots which penetrate in different layers of sand, therefore benefit moisture from top to deeper layers of sand. It has white-grey stems, silver colored and spiny leaf, divided into leaflets. Plant regenerates both through vegetative and reproductive systems. Different mechanisms of adaptation enable the species to adapt in harsh conditions.

In the pedagogical blog, the researchers asked learners divergent and evaluative questions based on Lindley’s model (1993). The quantitative data were collected by administering Creativity Test Questionnaire (ATC) and the Persian version of the California Critical Thinking Skills Test and were analyzed using SPSS Version 16.0 software. The qualitative data consisted of the posts written by the participants of the study in the class blog and were analyzed using thematic analysis. The findings revealed that the pedagogical blog significantly improved the participants’ creative and critical thinking skills, which were represented in their posts by the main themes of fluency, elaboration, and flexibility as components of divergent thinking and inference, evaluation, induction, and reconstruction as features of open and active critical thinking skills. Further findings and implications are discussed in the paper.

  • The Freshwater Fishes of Iran Redacted for Privacy Hs Tract Approved: Dr
    AN ABSTRPCT OF THE THESIS OF Neil Brant Anuantzout for the degree of Dcctor of Philosophy in Fisheries presented on 2 Title: The Freshwater Fishes of Iran Redacted for Privacy hs tract approved: Dr. Carl E. Bond The freshwater fish fauna of Iran is representedby 3 classes, 1 orders, 31 familIes, 90 genera, 269species and 58 subspecIes. This includes 8 orders, 10 families, 14 generaand 33 species with marine representatives that live at least partof the tixne in freshwater. Also included are one family, 7 genera,9 species and 4 subspecies introduced into Iran. Overhalf the species and nearly half the genera are in the family Cypririidae; over75% of the genera and species are in the orderCypriniformes. The fish fauna may be separated into threemajor groups. The largest and nst diverse is the Sannatian Fauna,which includes the Caspian Sea, Azerbaijan, Lake Bezaiyeh, Rhorasan,Isfahan, Dashte-Kavir, and the four subbasins of the Namak LakeBasins. Of the fish found in Iran, 14 of 31 earnilies, 48 of 90 genera,127 of 269 species and 46 of 58 subspecies are found in theSarmatian Fauna. Endemisa is low, and nstly expressed at the subspecific level.The fauna contains marine relicts from the Sannatian Sea and recentinmigrants with strong relationships to the fishes of Europe, the Black Seaand northern Asia. The marine relicts are absent outside the Caspian Sea Basin, where the fauna is best described as a depauperate extensionof the Caspian and Aral Sea faunas.

Its identity is related to its natural elements such as the Karkas Mountain, river, and topography of the region. The Kamoo River, as the main component of a natural landscape of the village, plays a vital role in the village genesis. Employing a library research method and field observations, this study deals with the position and importance of the river in the formation of Kamoo Village. The results show that the main river of Kamoo village, as an important natural element, follows a hierarchical order based on social power and dignity of its inhabitants. In addition, it follows aesthetic, ecological, physical, and economic hierarchies. This hierarchical order, namely a social hierarchy, has a significant role in the village development and structure. In addition to a social hierarchy, economic and physical hierarchies relevant to the main river are essential as well.
