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

Solar-powered cooling systems are energy-efficient technologies that reduce the negative impact of energy-consuming equipment on the environment. These systems are most promising for providing thermal comfort and storage of agricultural and pharmaceutical products in regions with hot climates. The variety of technical solutions options for refrigeration machines that use the thermal energy of the Sun is determined by various combinations of types of solar collectors and technologies of sorption processes. This article provides a classification and comparative analysis of energy, economic and operational indicators of modern solar-powered cooling systems.
