https://mts.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/modelling-of-solar-radiation-for-photovoltaic-applicationsThis chapter explores the different ways in which solar radiation (SR) can be quantified for use in photovoltaic applications. Some solar radiation models that incorporate different combinations of parameters are presented. The parameters mostly used include the clearness index (Kt), the sun…

It is one of the leading causes of preventable childhood blindness across the globe. The world is currently experiencing ROP as third epidemic, where majority of the …
https://mts.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/radium-223-and-actinium-225-emitter-radiopharmaceuticals-in-treatment-of-metastatic-castration-resisIn recent decades, multiple radiopharmaceutical conjugates have been tested and shown to be efficacious in treating metastasized castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Several types of research have been published on the therapeutic use of α-…
https://mts.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/smart-grid-project-planning-and-cost-benefit-evaluationThe smart grid involves a set of interconnected ecosystems applications (electrical, electronic, computer and communications), so the modernization is needed of information, security and infrastructure systems that monitor, control and manage them are increasingly evident. The upgrading smart g…
https://mts.intechopen.com/articles/show/title/a-new-forced-convection-heat-transfer-correlation-for-2d-enclosuresThis work presents a new parametric correlation for 2D enclosures with forced convection obtained from CFD simulation. The convective heat transfer coefficient of walls for enclosures depends on the geometry of the enclosure and the inlet and outlet openings, the velocity and the ai…
