Data confidence 70 medium
How this score is calculated

It is built from checkable properties of the record itself: whether the article has a DOI, how many independent sources confirmed its data, whether the required fields are filled in, and how recent the latest confirmation is. Disagreement between sources and a missing identifier lower it. A value of 80 or above means the record was published without further checking; 60 to 79 means it is published at reduced confidence, with a manual check advisable. A record verified by an editor by hand is never pushed below 90 by a recalculation. This scores our data about the article, not the article itself.

Abstract

This chapter is focused on solar cogeneration systems. These systems are silicon unijunctioned photocells with an optimal combination of the value of solar radiation concentration ratio and solar cell cooling intensity within the laminar flow of the coolant. This is based on the balance of the power which is released by the photocells, into the electrical and thermal network and dispersed into the environment. There is an engineering method for calculating the annual productivity of linear photovoltaic panels presented. The principles of designing solar radiation concentrators and photovoltaic panels is also considered. A fundamental new technique for testing linear photovoltaic panels with a sun concentration is proposed. This is when the absolute temperature of the radiating surface is logically introduced and a difficultly determined parameter is excluded, taking into account the temperature distribution along the surface of the absorber, from the location of the coolant.
