Solar
radiation: Nature and measurement. Solar collection and thermal conversion.
Solar collectors (flat-plate collectors, evacuated-tube collectors,
concentrating collectors, Fresnel lens concentrators, heliostats). Solar
thermal systems applications – Active & passive (heating – water&
space; cooling & dehumidification; drying & distillation). Thermal
energy storage. Economics of solar systems.
