Sensitivity of global solar irradiance to transposition models: Assessing risks associated with model discrepancies Yasser F. Nassar, Hala J. El‐Khozondar, Mohamed M. Khaleel, Abdussalam A. Ahmed, Abdulgader H. Alsharif, et al. E Prime Advances in Electrical Engineering Electronics and Energy, 2025 • Introducing a novel theory named Risk Index (RI), serving as an indicator of a model's deviation from the comparative model. • Assessing TMs' sensitivity to β s of flat-plate solar harvesters, highlighting increased risk as the angle approaches vertical angle. • Recommending a unique TM for a certain β interval for all sites in the northern hemisphere. Estimating solar irradiance is essential for solar energy systems evaluations, energy audit of buildings and. Global and sky-diffuse horizontal irradiances are measured by meteorological stations and satellites. Global horizontal solar irradiance is converted into a global tilted solar irradiance using transposition models (TMs). Despite its importance, many sites—especially isolated rural areas in need of sustainable energy sources—have a conspicuous dearth of information regarding these models. Significant errors can occur when choosing the incorrect TM for feasibility assessments or determining the optimum tilt angles ( β ) for solar collectors. A novel theory (Risky Index theory) for determining the least risky TM is introduced in this work. To evaluate and validate the proposed theory, eight commonly used TMs from literature, database platforms and software were chosen and tested on 133 sites with various climatic and geographical conditions in the Northern Hemisphere. The study concludes that risk index (RI) is <10 % for all models when the collector is facing south with low tilt angles ( β <40°). However, for 40°< β <60° the RI rises above 15 %, and it becomes significant (RI<50 %) as β becomes close to vertical plane. The least risky TM was determined for each site. The results matched satisfactorily with other researchers’ outputs without exceeding 3.5 % of error. A unique TM has been recommended for the entire world corresponding to each interval of β .
Utilizing sulfur and zinc oxide to improve impact in hard rubber recipe designs , Muthana Hussein, Nabel Kadum Abd-Ali, , Abdussalam Ali Ahmed, and Al Qadisiyah Journal for Engineering Sciences, 2024 The current work represents a practical study with the aim of getting the best design for hard rubber recipes by controlling materials that increase this property. Rubber recipes were prepared consisting of several materials, such as natural rubber, zinc oxide, and stearic acid, in addition to the accelerator and vulcanizing agent sulfur, which was added in multiple proportions 10, 20, 30 parts per hundred rubbers (PPHR). Also, recipes were prepared for the same previous ingredients with an increased percentage of Zinc oxide to 150 PPHR to demonstrate the effect of this material on the hardness property. Some laboratory tests were conducted to investigate the mechanical behavior of these recipes, such as hardness, tension, and Rebound (resilience) tests. The recipe with sulfur 30 pphr gave an acceptable indication in hardness and tensile test with values 98 IRHD and 35 MPa respectively. The same recipe in the rebound test was not the best but was an acceptable result, while the recipe with sulfur 10 pphr was the best in resilience test results (25%). Other rubber recipes with zinc oxide at 150 PPHR gave acceptable results especially in recipes with sulfur at 30 PPHR. Two forms of the composite plate covered with a hard rubber recipe may result in an external bonding process of individual plates and a vulcanized plate with a hard rubber recipe in a thermal press. The final hard rubber recipes may be used in other applications as an alternative material to withstand various stresses with specific properties.
Fuzzy Power Management for Low Carbon Footprint Vehicles Adel Oubelaid, Youcef Belkhier, Abdussalam Ali Ahmed, Shwetank Avikal, Mohit Bajaj E3s Web of Conferences, 2024 Currently, Hybrid Electric Vehicles (HEVs) are gaining traction in the market due to their low or zero carbon footprint. In this study, the power management of a Fuel Cell (FC) and Battery Electric Vehicle (BEV) using Fuzzy Logic Control (FLC) is investigated. Due to its sensitivity and low power density, the FC is used in parallel with a battery that serves as a storage element during regenerative braking periods. The DC link voltage is regulated via a control loop associated with the battery. However, a current regulation loop is used in conjunction with the FC to condition its power flow. The simulation results obtained using MATLAB/Simulink confirm the effectiveness of the proposed fuzzy energy management strategy. Additionally, the presented results demonstrate the ability of FLC to provide convenient power sharing between the utilized power sources without exhausting any source.
Review paper on Green Hydrogen Production, Storage, and Utilization Techniques in Libya Ibrahim Imbayah, Mashhood Hasan, Hala El-Khozondare, Mohamed Khaleel, Abdulgader Alsharif, Abdussalam Ahmed Solar Energy and Sustainable Development, 2024 the world is currently facing energy-related challenges due to the cost and pollution of non-renewable energy sources and the increasing power demand from renewable energy sources. Green hydrogen is a promising solution in Libya for converting renewable energy into usable fuel. This paper covers the types of hydrogen, its features, preparation methods, and uses. Green hydrogen production is still limited in the world due to safety requirements because hydrogen has a relatively low ignition temperature and an extensive ignition range and is considered a hazardous element, the lack of infrastructure in Libya, as well as the high cost of production currently. However, the production costs of one megawatt of green hydrogen and fossil fuels are insignificant. This suggests that electricity production from green hydrogen could become an economic competitor to fossil fuels in Libya. This is due to the cost of adding renewable energy to the public electricity grid. Also, the production of gray hydrogen is possible in Libya because of oil through the installation of systems for converting methane gas and capturing carbon dioxide gas.
