Abstract— A novel DY design for the perfectly flat‐screen “Pure Flat Tube” has been developed. The unique PSM (petal‐shaped multi‐section) saddle coils provide N/S pincushion‐distortion‐free while maintaining self‐converging function for a multi‐scanning application in display monitors. In addition, new techniques for reducing DY temperature rise and VLMF radiation have been introduced.
At the outset of the U.S. National Photovoltaic Program, it was envisioned that a large-scale deployment of grid-connected systems would be essential for photovoltaics to have a significant impact on the solution of the energy problem. To achieve this large-scale deployment, the installed system cost must break even with the net monetary return in terms of deferred energy cost and/or the cost of energy sold back to the grid. However, the current module and installation costs are significantly higher than what are economically viable. Therefore, during the past several years the reduction of the installed module cost has been the major emphasis of the Program.
The cost estimates for three candidate photovoltaic systems (1) flat plate, (2) linear-focus Fresnel concentrator, and (3) point-focus Fresnel concentrator showed that the installed cost of all three systems would be economically viable provided that various technology advancements are achieved and production volume increases as expected.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
