Optimizing Power Output in Solar Chimney Power Plants: Influence of Collector Area and Chimney Height
Abstract: This research paper investigates the crucial factors that determine the power output of solar chimney power plants, specifically the collector area and chimney height. A larger collector area efficiently gathers and heats a larger volume of air, and a steeper chimney height raises pressure differences via the stack effect, resulting in greater power generation. The study explores the significance of heat retention within the collector area, enabling continuous operation, even …

Interpreting Place Memory as a Future Horizon for Architecture
Abstract: The creation of architecture, whether innovative or traditional, entails a certain attitude towards past architecture, an act of interpretation of the past, which requires a new outlook. Though architects should tread carefully and responsibly with regard to past architecture, the past should not cast its shadow on the architect’s imagination, but rather be the grain of inspiration for future change and development. One should not consider the past as separate …

Newly developed closed ecological cycle for solving environmental problems and obtaining high-quality biofuels
Abstract: Stagnant "green" zones of freshwater lakes, resulting from the excessive reproduction of phytoplankton in sunlit, stagnant waters, present a grave environmental hazard by causing the demise of phytoplankton and fish, and releasing hydrogen sulfide, rendering the water unsuitable for agricultural purposes. In this regard, the development of a closed ecological cycle, including the concentration of phytoplankton from the "green water" of the lake, which allows using most of the phytoplanktonconcentrate …
