It is well known that fossil resources are declining, and their prices are rising constantly. Nowadays, scientists have endeavored looking for new alternative energy which is clean, no pollution and low investment cost. For that reason, electricity generation form magnetic energy is an interesting option that the scientists are paying attention. In addition, for another […]

The refrigeration system which can directly utilize solar energy to drive the system and produce the useful refrigeration is classified as a heat-powered refrigeration system. Absorption refrigeration and adsorption refrigeration systems are already extensively well known. However, there is another system which is called an ejector refrigeration system. ​Absorption refrigeration, adsorption refrigeration and ejector refrigeration […]

Environmental problem and climate change caused by greenhouse gas (GHG) emission are a big issue. Many countries have made an agreement to reduce GHG emissions. The transport sector accounts for 18% (EIA, 2015b) of global energy-related GHG emissions. Therefore, electric vehicles (EVs) have been getting attention to development again. A number of hundreds EVs in […]

During the past decade, “Renewable energy” is well-known and recognizable. Renewable energy, for example; solar; wind; biomass; hydro and hydrogen, are unexhausted resources of energy which can be turnover to use again. It is clean energy source without any impact to environment. Owing to the volatility of world oil market price effecting to increase of […]
