The Earth-Air Heat Exchanger (EAHE) is a device used to improve the thermal condition of built environments, allowing the reduction of electrical energy consumption of traditional air conditioner systems. Fundamentally, its operational principle is based on fluid mechanics and heat transfer,...

This work presents a new design of an air conditioning prototype by solar energy developed at the Laboratory of Electromechanical Systems of the National Engineering School of Sfax, Tunisia. The new conception permits to produce heat or cold by using solar energy without polluting the...

Following the detailed study of the three modules of the Solar Multiple Condensation Evaporation Cycle (SMCEC)-based desalination unit located in Sfax, Tunisia, it was found necessary to couple the three modules, to simulate the desalination unit operation in an environment close to that of the...

During the past few years, the plant nursery sector has drastically minimized its carbon footprint by using geothermal systems for heating rather than fossil fuel. This study aims to define the temperature range inside a greenhouse by means of a multiparametric analysis, with regard to several...
