Dust deposition characteristics on photovoltaic arrays investigated through wind tunnel experiments by Juan Wang, Weiwei Hu, Yunyun Wen, Fei Zhang, Xingcai Li

“…The results indicate that the dust accumulation on the first panel exponential growth with increasing tilt angle, incoming flow angles, and height, while subsequent panels displayed a trend of initial increase followed by a decrease, with a maximum increasing ratio achieved at specific installation configurations, the difference of dust mass on each panel can even be several times. Notably, when the spacing between panels exceeds twice the panel height, the mutual influence on dust deposition becomes negligible, providing a quantifiable threshold for optimal panel spacing. …”

Advanced machine learning approach with dynamic kernel weighting for accurate electrical load forecasting by C. Jeevakarunya, V. Manikandan

“…This article presents a load forecasting model for commercial buildings with Enhanced Dynamically Weighted Multiple Kernel Support Vector Regression (EDW-MKSVR) and a mini-batch gradient descent method to achieve good regularization along with clustering techniques to segment different times of the day. The first step in preparing the dataset is to perform preprocessing, which involves conducting correlation analysis, scaling, and normalization followed by initial hyperparameter tuning using the multiswarm Levy flight particle swarm optimization technique. …”
