Photovoltaic Hydrogen Production, U.S.-Pakistan Cooperative Research

小行星9322623 产品描述：该项目支持来自迈阿密大学清洁能源研究所（CERI）的两名美国科学家与巴基斯坦伊斯兰堡的国家硅技术研究所（NIST）一起参与一个项目，对光伏制氢进行理论和实验研究。 将研究两个系统，一个具有存储系统，以平衡昼夜和季节性日照，另一个没有这样的存储。 理论研究将确定两个系统中的每一个在各种条件下的最佳变量。 在巴基斯坦进行的实验研究中，将设计、建造、运行和评估一个光伏制氢示范系统。 结果将被用来完善理论。 范围：本项目涉及许多发展中国家面临的主要问题之一。 巴基斯坦就是这样一个国家，它没有石油储备，但由于地处阳光地带，它也许能够利用太阳辐射作为能源和工业用途。 CERI与NIST在巴基斯坦的合作提供了互补能力的强大组合。 NIST得到了巴基斯坦科学技术部的支持，该部门已经为该项目的主要部分，即实验部分分配了必要的资源。 该项目可以为美国提供所需的大部分材料和技术，并使巴基斯坦和其他发展中国家受益，为各种应用和工业提供源源不断的能源。 ***

9322623 Veziroglu Description: This project supports the participation of two U.S. scientists, from the Clean Energy Research Institute (CERI), University of Miami, with The National Institute of Silicon Technology (NIST), in Islamabad, Pakistan, in a project to conduct theoretical and experimental studies for photovoltaic hydrogen production. Two systems will be investigated, one with a storage system to even out the diurnal and seasonal insolation, and the other without such storage. The theoretical study will determine the optimum variables of each of the two systems under various conditions. In the experimental investigations, to be carried out in Pakistan, a PV Hydrogen Production demonstration system will be designed, built, operated, and evaluated. The results will be used to refine the theory. Scope: This project addresses one of the major problems facing many developing countries. Pakistan is one such country with no oil reserves, but which may be able, by virtue of being in the sunbelt, to utilize solar radiation for energy and for industrial applications. The collaboration by the CERI with the NIST in Pakistan provides a strong combination of complementary capabilities. The NIST is backed by the Pakistan Ministry of Science and Technology which has already allocated the necessary resources for the major part of the project, the experimental part. The project can lead to major benefits to the U.S. in supplying much of the materials and technology needed, and can benefit Pakistan and other developing countries utilize an endless source of energy for various applications and industries. ***
