Abstract
Thermal energy harvesting has seen a rise in popularity in recent years due to its potential to generate renewable energy from the sun. One of the key components of this process is the solar absorber, which is responsible for converting solar radiation into thermal energy. In this paper, a smart performance optimization of energy efficient solar absorber for thermal energy harvesting is proposed for modern industrial environments using solar deep learning model. In this model, data is collected from multiple sensors over time that measure various environmental factors such as temperature, humidity, wind speed, atmospheric pressure, and solar radiation. This data is then used to train a machine learning algorithm to make predictions on how much thermal energy can be harvested from a particular panel or system. In a computational range, the proposed solar deep learning model (SDLM) reached 83.22 % of testing and 91.72 % of training results of false positive absorption rate, 69.88 % of testing and 81.48 % of training results of false absorption discovery rate, 81.40 % of testing and 72.08 % of training results of false absorption omission rate, 75.04 % of testing and 73.19 % of training results of absorbance prevalence threshold, and 90.81 % of testing and 78.09 % of training results of critical success index. The model also incorporates components such as insulation and orientation to further improve its accuracy in predicting the amount of thermal energy that can be harvested. Solar absorbers are used in industrial environments to absorb the sun's radiation and turn it into thermal energy. This thermal energy can then be used to power things such as heating and cooling systems, air compressors, and even some types of manufacturing operations. By using a solar deep learning model, businesses can accurately predict how much thermal energy can be harvested from a particular solar absorber before making an investment in a system.
