    Optimization of the process of cooking and drying of brick
    (isjaee, 2010) Saidi, Mohammed; Hamiane, Messaoud; Benmounah, A.; Safi, Brahim
    The construction materials play an enormous part in the economy of the country; this industry comprises a very varied range of products going of simple pottery passing by brick of construction until the technical porcelain and the industry of cements. As, this production takes a so important rise as the realization of manufacturing plant becomes a daily reality. This realization of quite quantitative factory that qualitative depends on the availability of a raw material of quality, means of production in good knowledge and operating condition to make allowing a perfect control of the process. Considering, the enormous part which plays the construction materials in particular the bricks of construction in the economy of the country. We were interested to make a study concerning the production unit of bricks of Boudouaou (east of Algeria) on the technological, thermal and economic level since the essential study is made on the thermal part in order to calculate the acceptable mode of cooking and to calculate the combustion of gas. The study of the heat balance enables us to know how calculations can be carried out and of knowing how and the energies brought to the furnace spent are consumed. This study enabled us to make a saving in gas in the order of 63.5 m³/h and to make a profit of energy of 266.37 kJ/kg of product and to obtain a better use of the drier and furnace with a possible maximum thermal efficiency

    Development of an Antireflection Layer Using a LDS Based on β-SiC Nanoparticles
    (Springer, 2020) Benfadel, K.; Kaci, S.; Hamidouche, F.; Keffous, A.; Benmounah, A.; Manseri, A.; Achacha, S.
    The main objective of this work is to use β-SiC (also called 3C-SiC) silicon carbide nanoparticles to formulate composite layer for wavelength conversion. Silicon Carbide nanopowders (npβ-SiC) were successfully synthesized by sol-gel method and followed by carbothermal reduction. Composite thin layers based on np-β-SiC incorporated into polyvinyl alcohol, (PVA) as matrix, where prepared. We have investigated the composite layers deposited silicon solar cell as a luminescent down shifting layer (LDS) to convert UV wavelengths. The texturation of the substrates by making pyramids, pyramids with nanowires was investigated in order to decrease the surface reflectance of silicon surface. An improvement in the spectral response of the obtained solar cells was very remarkable. In order to confirm this property, electro-optical characterizations were carried out on the solar cell with the developed composite layer and also on that without β-SiC/PVA coating, as reference. The morphological quality of the used substrates was examined by SEM images. EQE measurements have shown a noticeable increase showing the ability to use the prepared composite layer as lightweight encapsulation material for photovoltaic devices

    Properties of SiC-Based Luminescent Composite Thin Film As Light-Harvesting Material
    (Springer, 2020) Benfadel, K.; Kaci, S.; Talbi, L.; Keffous, A.; Benmounah, A.; Bozetine, I.; Boukezzata, A.; Rahmoune, R.; Ouadah, Y.; Guerbous, L.; Kermad, A.; Achacha, S.; Mahmoudi, B.; Cheraga, H.
    In this study, we present the use of SiC/PVA composite thin films as downshifting layers (LDS) in order to improve the photoelectrical parameters of a Si-based solar cell. We showed that the adding of these layers increases the short circuit current density. This increase could surely lead to the improvement of the power conversion efficiency since the two parameters are relied. The J–V characterizations of the as made c-Si solar cell measured under white light showed an enhancement of the photocurrent after coating the c-Si solar cell with SiC-based LDSs. The same behavior was noticed upon exposure to UV light illumination which depended strongly on the elaboration conditions of the luminescent porous SiC particles. A decrease in total reflectance of the c-Si solar cell coated with SiC based LDS was also observed. Spectral Response measurements have shown significant enhancement where the solar cells have poor optical response.
