The Biological Effects of Radiation Whether the source of radiation is natural or man made‚ whether it is a small dose of radiation or a large dose‚ there will be some biological effects. Radiation causes ionizations of atoms‚ which will affect molecules‚ which may affect cells‚ which may affect tissues‚ and so on. Although most people tend to think of biological effects in terms of the effect of radiation on living cells‚ in actuality‚ ionizing radiation‚ by definition‚ interacts only with

SOLAR ENERGY INTRODUCTION SOLAR ENERGY is the radiant energy that we receive from the sun in the form of heat and light. It is an inexhaustible source of energy. Solar Energy is the ultimate source of most of the sources of energy that we use. The wind energy‚ water energy‚ energy of fossil fuels and the energy in food are due to solar energy. SOURCE OF SOLAR ENERGY The discovery of radioactivity led some scientists to suggest that the energy released during radioactive decay of radioactive

A solar inverter‚ or PV inverter‚ converts the variable direct current (DC) output of a photovoltaic (PV) solar panel into a utility frequencyalternating current (AC) that can be fed into a commercial electrical grid or used by a local‚ off-grid electrical network. It is a critical component in a photovoltaic system‚ allowing the use of ordinary commercial appliances. Solar inverters have special functions adapted for use with photovoltaic arrays‚ including maximum power point tracking and anti-islanding protection
