Energy & Power (Junior Division Only)
Objectives/Goals The purpose of this work was to produce several dye sensitized solar cells and to measure their output power density as a function of the incident irradiance. Comparison was…
CSEF · 2010
Energy & Power (Junior Division Only) Honorable_mention Award
Objectives/Goals My project is about passive solar design,and how it uses the sun position in the sky during winter and summer, to heat and cool a building without an A.C. or heater. For thi…
