3-D MODELLING OF ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS’ EFFECTS ON THE HEATING OF THE BASE OF AN INTENSE LIGHT ILLUMINATED POLYCRYSTALLINE SILICON PV CELL
B. Soro, M. Savadogo, B. Zouma, K. E. Tchedre, I. Sourabie, I. Zerbo, M. Zoungrana, D. J. Bathiebo
Performances of a solar cell are significantly influenced by the heating of the base. Two phenomena contribute to the heating of the base of a PV cell: the heat due to the transfer by conduction of the solar energy radiation received by the surface of the PV cell and the heat generated inside the solar cell by various phenomena related to the(...)

Experimental Evaluation of Thermals Performancesof The Solar Dryer with Parabolic Trough Collector
B. Magloire Pakouzou, N. Landry M'Bouana, M. S. Thierry Ky, Jean M'Boliguipa and D. Joseph Bathiébo
A cylindrical-parabolic solar-thermal converter, with 0.5m 2 of capture surface, was manufactured and attached to a furnace, constituting an indirect solar dryer. Thermal balances of the elements of the receiver, housed in the focal point of this collector, are settled. A campaign of vacuum tests of this dryer indicated temperatures of the hea(...)

LIGHT CONCENTRATION SOLAR CELL: TEMPERATURE PROPER AND DYNAMIC EFFECTS ON ELECTRICAL PARAMETERS DETERMINED BY USING J-V AND P-V CHARACTERISTICS
MAHAMADI SAVADOGO, AMADOU KONFE, IDRISSA SOURABIE, BOUBACAR SORO, RAMATOU KONATE, MARTIAL ZOUNGRANA, ISSA ZERBO, DIEUDONNÉ JOSEPH BATHIEBO
The solar cell is assumed to be under light concentration (C=50 Suns) which leads us to take into consideration the electric field induced by electrons concentration gradient. We also take into consideration temperature influence on electron and hole diffusion parameters, on carrier generation rate, on carrier intrinsic concentration and on si(...)

Effect of the Orientation on the Comfort of a Building Made with Compressed Earth Block
Fati Amadou Oumarou, Adama Ouedraogo, Sikoudouin Maurice Thierry Ky, Ramchandra Bhandari, Amadou Konfe, Ramatou Konate, Rabani Adamou, Dieudonné Joseph Bathiebo, Sié Kam
Thermal comfort is one of the most important requirements that scientists
and building designers must meet to ensure the indoor air quality knowing its
importance on productivity and the health of occupants. However, it has
never been of great concern for architects and a rchitectural historians and
seldom explores it. Buildings are th(...)

Thermal Behavior of the Natural Convection of Air Confined in a Trapezoidal Cavity
Windé Nongué Daniel Koumbem1*, Issaka Ouédraogo2, Noufou Bagaya1 and Pelega Florent Kieno1
The thermal behavior of air by natural convection in a confined trapezoidal cavity, one of the walls of which is subjected to a constant heat flow in hot climates, has been analyzed numerically. The heat and mass transfers are carried out by the classical equations of natural convection. These equations are discretized using the Finite Differe(...)
