Summary: | Renewable energy has become important today, since the world is shortage of oil for the main source of energy. Government and Private organization seriously do many research and development activity towards the new energy sources from solar, biomass, hydro and wind energy. As solar energy is concern, it has many advantages. Some of the advantages are it has high reliability, low operating cost, environmental friendly, modularity and low construction cost. In this project report, the development of the application of solar energy systems using photovoltaic module for car air-conditioning systems was carried out. The vapor-compression cycle was linked to the solar system as an alternative way of energy to reduce fuel consumptions. In this project thesis, calculations on the sizing of the system were also carried out to determine the optimum design considerations. |
