Abstract A Salt Gradient Solar Pond (SGSP) is an artificial pond or natural lake, able to
collect and store the incident solar energy, characterizing by a specific vertical gradient of …

In this paper, experimental and numerical investigations of heat and mass transfer in a Salt
Gradient Solar Pond (SGSP) are presented for the first time in the SGSP studies. The …

This article aims to propose and study a new system design for renewable energy called
photovoltaic/solar pond. This new system involves cooling the arrays of the …

Solar desalination is emerging as a sustainable solution for water shortage in countries
having limited access to conventional energy resources. This paper proposes an …

A solar pond is a simple and reliable system that collects and stores solar energy for
applications with low-grade heat supply. The main obstacle to the long-term stable operation …

A mathematical model for multi-diffusive convection with Soret and Dufour effects is
developed to simulate the behavior of a salinity gradient solar pond (SGSP) in this study …

A Solar pond is a cost effective and environmentally friendly system, which can balance
solar energy supply and demand particularly when is augmented with the phase change …

Transient evolution of thermal and salinity behaviors of two pilot salt-gradient solar ponds
with and without Paraffin Wax (PW) as the phase change material (PCM) were studied …

The main aim of this study is to investigate numerically and experimentally the effects of
double-diffusive convection on calculation time and accuracy results of a Salt Gradient Solar …
