Purpose The aim of this study was conducted to determine the direct influence of the variables need for achievement, risk-taking and self-efficacy on performance, mediated by socio-cultural factors. Design/methodology/approach The study involved 60 respondents from various SMEs i...

Performance evaluation of a solar flat plate air heater integrated with Zinc oxide based nano-enhanced phase change materials

This study experimentally explores the thermal energy storage and conversion behaviour of a solar flat plate air heater system (SFPAHS) integrated with ZnO–Ne–PCM. For, this real-time test rigs with paraffin wax (case – I) and with ZnO – Ne – PCMs (case – II) are observed in the...
