Abstract

This study focused on evaluating the economic cost viability of developing a floating solar photovoltaic systems (FSPVs) project in Nigeria, using Ikang river, Bakassi as an incident study. The FSPVs was designed using the HOMER software to satisfy full load requirements of 2426.45 kWh/day, while appraising the viability of the FSPVs in incident study. Meteorological data of the incident study location which include geographical coordinates, ambient temperature, and global horizontal irradiance were used to select a suitable FSPVs design for the cost appraisal. Lifecycle cost model was further developed to evaluate the proposed FSPVs at different project development phases. These include: predevelopment and consenting (PC), procurement and acquisition (PA), installation and commissioning (IC), operation and maintenance (OM), and decommissioning and disposal (DD). The results obtained showed that the net present cost, Levelized cost of energy, and operating cost of the project were 10,350,933.25USD, 0.90USD/kWh, and 179,164.73USD, respectively. Also, the capital expenditure (CAPEX) amassed by 81.53% of the entire project cost, while operating expenditure (OPEX) was 18.47%. Furthermore, installation, support systems, predevelopment and project management, contingencies, indirect cost, and electrical equipment were the key drivers of the project. For the lifecycle stages; PC, PA, IC, OM and DD were obtained to be 12%, 57.9%, 11.6%, 9.96%, and 8% respectively of the project cost. Thus, the incident study location has the potential for FSPVs development and has proven to be economically viable. Nevertheless, established model was suitable in appraising preliminary variations in FSPVs.

Abstract

This study presents an optimization model for determining global solar radiation in the northeastern region of Nigeria using a combination of meteorological data and satellite imagery. Ten recent models were chosen from the literature review and optimized to select the one that best fits the study region. Two models were developed to provide accurate solar radiation predictions, which can be used to improve the planning and implementation of a solar energy project in the region. The model integrates the Angstrom-Prescott model with various climate parameters such as Temperature (∆T), relative humidity (RH), location latitude (Φ), solar declination angle (δ), and the number of days in a year (n) with satellite image data to determine the global solar radiation. The finding of optimization models shows that the model10 performed very well with minimum error as Mean Base Error (0.028), Mean Percentage Error (- 0.001), Root Mean Square Error (0.098), and coefficient of determination R2 (0.994), which suggested as the optimized model for determining of global solar radiation in northeastern Nigeria. The two models were developed, that is, proposed Model1 and proposed Model2. Proposed Model1 slightly overestimated the global solar radiation with Mean Base Error (-0.863), Mean Percentage Error (-0.039), Root Mean Square Error (2.990), and coefficient of determination R2 (0.745), while proposed Model2 performed better with Mean Base Error (-0.005), Mean Percentage Error (0.0003), Root Mean Square Error (0.02) with the coefficient of determination R2 (0.985). The proposed models were validated using the suggested optimized model10 and satellite data model, which show that the proposed model can accurately determine global solar radiation in the northeastern region of Nigeria. This study's findings will benefit the region's solar energy project developers, researchers, and policymakers

Abstract

In this paper, some new classes of exponentially general nonconvex variational inequalities are introduced and investigated. Several special cases are discussed as applications of these nonconvex variational inequalities. Projection technique is used to establish the equivalence between the non covex variational inequalities and fixed point problem. This equivalent formulation is used to discuss the existence of the solution. Several inertial type methods are suggested and analyzed for solving exponentially general nonconvex variational inequalities. using the technique of the projection operator and dynamical systems. Convergence analysis of the iterative methods is analyzed under suitable and appropriate weak conditions. In this sense, our result can be viewed as improvement and refinement of the previously known results. Our methods of proof are very simple as compared with other techniques.

Abstract

Among Non-Volatile Memories (NVMs), PCMs are considered the best alternative to DRAM (dynamic random-access memories). As a result of its superior performance and scalability, there are several advantages over DRAM, including lower leakage and energy consumption, higher cell number, and smaller cells. This kind of memory does, however, suffer from a long write latency. In this article, we present a technique to reduce write latency by reducing the number of SET operations. The proposed method is an improved Write Time Speed-up (WTS) code scheme. In the proposed scheme, a new code based on hamming weight is given, and an appropriate algorithm is written to reduce the number of SET operations. Compared with current methods, the proposed scheme decreased SET and RESET operations by 3.9 percent, SET operations by 3.3 percent, and power consumption by 2.6 percent. Visual Basic 6 and GEM 5 simulations are used to simulate the suggested method

Abstract

Due to the need of the construction industry to implement structures with special and complex designs, mass customization with the lowest cost, especially reducing the labor cost as well as the amount of waste and materials used, the use of concrete 3D printing can be the appropriate solution to these requirements fulfill these options. As a result, a comprehensive and practical study of the major 3D printing methods and their development in the construction industry was carried out in this study. In addition, the use of OPC-based materials and geopolymer-based materials was reviewed and compared due to the development of the materials industry and the advantages and disadvantages of using different types of cementitious materials in the 3D printing of concrete.

Abstract

By creating hybrid energy systems and obtaining a framework that equally satisfies a continuous operation for renewable energy technology, this study presents renewable and sustainable energy options as an integral method to energy transitioning from non-renewable to renewable energy utilization in Cross River State, Nigeria. For a needed load of 2424.25 kWh/day in Cross River State, this study focused on proposing a designed hybrid energy system (HES) nexus, mitigating CO2, and appraisal of the technical and economic viability. To accomplish this, HOMER software was utilized in simulating the ideal components that suggested a HES nexus. The software enabled the selection of the optimal HES using various renewable energy sources since it predicts future electrical demand, wind speed, solar irradiation, and temperature. Economic results obtained showed that the proposed HES's Levelized cost of energy (LCOE), net present cost (NPC), and operating cost (OC) were $0.89/kWh, $10,138,702 and $134,084.37 respectively. Further technical appraisal showed that the renewable energy conversion systems (RECs) make up 78.74% of the proposed HES. The photovoltaic (PV) arrays were primarily responsible for the hybrid energy system's electricity output. The annual electrical energy output was 1,984,111kWh (89.4%), produced by the PV arrays. The generic fuel cell produced the least, at 29,957kWh/year, accounting for just 1.35% of the total electricity produced. However, the wind power plant produced 205,365kWh/year annually. Furthermore, comparing the HES with diesel-powered generators, the system achieves a net-zero carbon emission status. Therefore, it has proven to be the most reliable energy as it will solve the problem of energy demand and reduces carbon emissions in Cross River State, Nigeria
