        Introduction and Aim Limited resources and the need for energy conservation have made the use of energy loss preventive thermal insulations, like the paints containing micro mineral particles, an economic option in different industries and buildings. The aim of the current study is to investigate the effect of modern insulation, such as paints with ceramic micro-particle in internal walls of a room with radiative cooling panels, on energy consumption.  Method In the present study, to investigate the flow field and temperature distribution in a room with a wall of radiation cooling, a three-dimensional cavity has been simulated with different boundary conditions. The effect of coating with a paint containing ceramic micro-particles, ordinary acrylic paints and no paint in different states of changing the boundary conditions, such as changes in wall temperature and absorption coefficient on a room with wall cooling radiation has been studied and the results were compared. Findings Using the computer code, the interior surface temperature is obtained for different boundary conditions and used as a boundary condition for simulation. In case of using wall radiative cooling panels, room temperature is in the comfort zone in all cases, and the lowest temperature occurs when using paints with ceramic micro-particles in the interior surfaces of the room. Discussion It was observed that the coating containing ceramic micro-particles acted as a thermal insulation and reduced energy consumption by about 22% . Manuscript profile

        In this paper, a wired antenna with a new structure for the central frequency of 15 MHz is designed and simulated. In addition to being shorter than the wavelength, this antenna has a high radiant resistance and low imaginary resistance compared to a unipolar antenna of equal length. Also, for high efficiency and maximum bandwidth in the frequency range of 10 to 25 MHz, the dimensions of the antenna have been optimized.  S-NEC software is used to design and simulate this antenna, which is one of the specialized software in this field. It is also possible to increase the dimensions of the antenna by a certain ratio, for example 1000, and therefore the operating frequency of the antenna decreases by the same ratio, such antennas that work in the VLF band are used for special purposes.

        Land surface temperature (LST) is a key parameter in environmental studies particularly for drought monitoring. Due to the ground limitations to measure the LST on a large scale, thermal remote sensing is a unique method for estimating LST. The aim of this article is comparing between LST estimation in single and multi-channel method using Landsat 8 thermal and reflective bands. Necessary ground data from meteorological stations Farabi (Khuzestan) and Karaj (Alborz) were taken to coincide with the dates and times of Landsat 8 overpasses. In this article Land surface emissivity and atmospheric water vapor content are major inputs for single and multi-channel LST estimation. After correction, processing and calculation of interest, LST were estimated. For result evaluation, statistical indices such as Root-Mean-Square Error (RMSE), Mean Absolute Error (MAE) and coefficient of determination (R2) were used. Results show the high value of R2 in all LST estimation method in comparison with ground measurement. In single channel using band 10 highest accuracy with MAE about 1.04 and 0.98 degrees in Karaj and Farabi station was seen respectively. The lowest and highest value of RMSE is in the single channel method (band 10) and multi-channel method (band 10 and 11) respectively. Study area conditions in terms of temperature; land cover and water vapor content affect the results and appropriate thermal band selection. Take-in consideration, especially using multi-band LST estimation method is suggested. Manuscript profile

        In this study, the flow field analysis and heat transfer of two-phase nanofluid flow in a parabolic solar collector with eccentric absorber and solid insulation have been investigated. The fluid used in this collector is nanofluid of water - Aluminium. The main aim of current study is to investigate the effect of using eccentric absorber system and solid insulation on the energy efficiency of linear parabolic collectors. For this purpose, energy efficiency has been measured and presented for different states (including ambient temperature, fluid inlet temperature, nanofluid volume fraction, nanoparticle diameter and geometric characteristics). The study is in turbulent flow regime and in order to model it, the k epsilon turbulence model has been used. In order to solve the survival equations, the finite volume method and the SIMPLE C algorithm have been used. Different optimal models are introduced in terms of having the highest energy efficiency, and the best model is determined. Based on obtained results, the highest energy efficiency in different Reynolds is related to the novel collector and two-phase model(TPM). In the next positions, respectively, are the novel collector and single-phase model(SPM), the basic collector and two-phase model, and at the end, the basic collector and single-phase model. It was also found that as the Reynolds number increases, all modes have an uptrend. The maximum amount of energy efficiency was for the novel collector and the two-phase model at Reynolds 15000, Which is equal to 68%. Also, the maximum energy efficiency for eccentricity 20 mm at Reynolds 15000, which is equal to 74.9%. Manuscript profile

        The main purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of using an elliptical absorber system with helical ribbed tube on the energy efficiency of linear parabolic collectors. For this purpose, energy efficiency has been measured and presented for different modes, and finally different optimal models are introduced in terms of having the highest energy efficiency, and finally the best model is determined. Based on the obtained results, the highest energy efficiency in different Reynolds is related to the new collector and single-phase model. According to the results of this dissertation, the use of grooved pipe has an effect on increasing the efficiency of the collector. As the number of grooves increases from 1 to 3, the collector efficiency increases. It was also found that the collector efficiency increases with increasing step and slope amplitude. by increasing the groove angle from 10 ° to 50 °, the collector efficiency increases and the maximum value of η is obtained at ° ξ = 60. However, by increasing the groove angle from 50 ° to 60 °, the collector efficiency decreases. Manuscript profile

        The present study investigates a double-fluid volumetric based parabolic trough solar receiver. The control volume approach is used to solve the system of classical single phase governing equations by using the finite volume method. The standard k–ε turbulence model with enhanced wall function is selected. According to obtained results, the value of efficiency of Conventional-Parabolic-Through-Solar-Collectors (CPTSCs) and Novel-Parabolic-Through-Solar-Collectors (NPTSCs) reduces by increasing of inlet temperature of base fluid and therefore, there is an optimum inlet temperature for all configurations and it is equal to 40°C.

        In order to evaluate radiation absorption and use efficiency for wheat cultivars under effect of nitrogen fertilizer levels, a split-plot experiment based on the randomized complete block design with three replications was conducted during 2015-2016. The treatments were four nitrogen fertilizer levels (90, 180, 300, 360 kg.ha-1 of urea) as main-plot and four wheat cultivars (Parsi, Zare, Pishgam and Orum) as sub-plot. The evaluated traits were included leaf area index, radiation absorption, crop growth rate, relative growth ratio, leaf dry weight, stem dry weight, total dry weight, radiation use efficiency and grain yield. The results showed that Pishgam cultivar compared to other cultivars had the most satisfying in terms of evaluated characteristics under nitrogen fertilizer rate treatments. By increasing the rate of urea fertilizer from 90 to 360 kg.ha-1, maximum leaf area index, radiation absorption, crop growth rate, relative growth ratio, leaf dry weight, stem dry weight, total dry weight and grain yield were improved. The most (8950 kg.ha-1) and the lowest (1264 kg.ha-1) grain yield weight were observed for Pishgam cultivar in 360 kgurea. ha-1 treatment and for cultivar variety in 90 kgurea. ha-1 treatment, respectively. The results also showed that the highest and the lowest radiation use efficiency were related to Pishgam cultivar (1.59 g.MJ-1) in 360 kgurea.ha-1 treatment and Orum cultivar (0.67 g.MJ-1) in 90 kgurea.ha-1 treatment, respectively. It seems that rising of nitrogen fertilizer by improvement of photosynthesis and crop growth rate caused to pick up dry matter accumulation and finally increased wheat radiation use efficiency.

        This work presents the heat transfer characteristics of a new type of porous radiant air heater that operates on the basis of effective energy conversion method between flowing gas enthalpy and thermal radiation. At each layer, the gas and solid phases are considered in non-local thermal equilibrium and combustion in the porous radiant burner is modelled by considering a non-uniform heat generation zone. The homogeneous porous media, in addition to its convective heat exchange with the gas, may absorb, emit, and scatter thermal radiation. In order to determine the thermal characteristics of the proposed porous radiant air heater, a two-dimensional model is used to solve the governing equations for porous medium and gas flow and the discrete ordinates method is employed to obtain the distribution of radiative heat flux in the porous media. In order to validate the applied numerical method at the present analysis, the results are compared with some reported theoretical and experimental results by other investigators and good agreement is found.

        Estimating rate of actual evapotranspiration is very important for designing of the irrigation systems, storage construction and water conveyance structures. Many methods have been developed for estimating reference crop evapotranspiration. Amount of these methods are need different climatic parameters but providing all of the data those are necessary for ET0 is not always available and if have been provided, these data may be is not completely correct. Therefore some methods have developed to estimating ET0 with minimum data such as Hargreaves-Samani and Jensen-Haise methods. In this research, eight cases of these methods have been compared. These comparisons were made on the basis alfalfa lysimeter data from Kabotarabud, Isfahan. The results show that through of these cases, which were used Samani-Pessarakly equation for calculating Extraterrestrial Radiation, were estimating ET0 better than the others with 15 Percent Average Maximum Absolute Relative Error (MARE). In addition, these above mention cases were had higher correlation coefficient as compare to other cases, so with improved the main equations with linear regression, MARE were decreased until 9 Percent. Finally, as compared the two methods of calculating the HargreavesœSamani coefficient, Kt, the results showed that there was no considerable different between Allen's equation and Samani-Pessarakly's equation.
