Textile fabrics, the most widespread flexible materials in everyday use, offer a solution to the need for lightweight, flexible solar PV generators. \u003cb\u003eSolar Textiles: The Flexible Solution for Solar Power\u003c\/b\u003e is about the incorporation and operation of solar cells on textile fabrics. The combination of textile manufacturing and solar PV cell technology opens up further avenues for both the textile and semiconductor industries. Thus, this book reflects the progressively increasing commercial interest in PV cell technology and the versatility that their integration in textiles provides.\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cul\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDiscusses textiles as electrical substrates\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eExplains the photovoltaic effect and associated parameters\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eOffers special consideration of solar cells on textiles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eCompares fibres and fabrics and how to implement PV activity on a textile\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDescribes manufacturing methods outside of semiconductor technology\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eIncludes applications open only to textiles\u003c\/li\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e \u003cp\u003eThis work is aimed at textile technologists, electronic engineers, solar technologists, civil engineers and designers in building fabrics and architecture.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Robert Mather, John Wilson\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0367706059\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780367706050\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e CRC Press\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/21\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 109\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.79lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.38d","brand":"Robert Mather","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":44123363377407,"sku":"9780367706050","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_c7b7e4d7-ff19-49b0-a6cb-4d049d9d9c63.jpg?v=1687430461","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/solar-textiles-robert-mather-9780367706050","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
