| Abstract | ||
| A simulation model of a new solar pumped laser system is tested to be run in Helwan in Egypt as an example of an industrial polluted area. The system is based on concentrating the solar radiation using a Fresnel lens on a laser head fixed on a mount tracking the sun during the day and powered by a DC battery. The model is fed by real solar radiation data in the various seasons in order to know the laser power got from such a system in those conditions. The results showed that the output laser power obtained from this system can be up to 6.2 W in spring, 6.8 W in summer, 2.2 W in autumn and 0.4 W in winter. | ||
