ABSTRACT This papaer analyzed the global MDF production and its concentration degree between 1995 and 2016. In order to measure and analyze this concentration, we used the Concentration Ratio [CR(k)], the Herfindahl-Hirschman Index (HHI), Theil Entropy Index (E), Hall and Tideman Index (HTI), the Comprehensive Concentration Index (CCI), and the Gini Index (G). Global MDF production grew 12.81% p.a. from 1995 to 2016, reaching 99 million m3 at the end of the time series. China took over the hegemony in 2001 and arrived in 2016 with about 60% of the world’s MDF supply. The CR(k) of the global MDF production inferred a high concentration, mainly in the CR(4) from 2009. The CR(8) remained with a moderately high average concentration. During this period more than 90% of the offer was retained in the CR(20). The HHI, E and HTI indices corroborate that there is high concentration in global MDF production, as well as the CCI in the studied period. The inequality indicated by G also presented increasing behavior and was classified as strong and very strong. The concentration indicators were efficient in evaluating the concentration degree of the world MDF supply.

Concentrator photovoltaics have several advantages over flat plate systems. However, the increase in solar concentration usually leads to an increase in the solar cell temperature, which decreases the performance of the system. Therefore, in this paper, we investigate the performance and temperature limits of a high concentration photovoltaic Thermal system (HCPVT) based on a 1 cm2 multi-junction solar cell subjected to a concentration ratio from 500× to 2000× by using three different types of cooling fluids (water, ethylene glycol and water mixture (60:40), and syltherm oil 800). The results show that, for this configuration, the maximum volumetric temperature of the solar cell did not exceed the manufacturer’s recommended limit for the tested fluids. At 2000× the lowest solar cell temperature obtained by using water was 93.5 °C, while it reached as high as 109 °C by using syltherm oil 800, which is almost equal to the maximum operating limit provided by the manufacturer (110 °C). Overall, the best performance in terms of temperature distribution, thermal, and electrical efficiency was achieved by using water, while the highest outlet temperature was obtained by using syltherm oil 800.

A high concentration photovoltaic/thermal system based on plane mirrors array has been developed and analyzed. It is found that the system with plane mirrors array not only can reduce the cost but also achieve a uniform illumination and adjustable concentration ratios. The system produces both electrical and thermal energy, with the electrical efficiency above 22% and the thermal efficiency above 47%. The experimental results show that the temperature coefficient of open circuit voltage in this photovoltaic module is around ?0.12 V/?C. Moreover, when the concentration ratio varies between 200 and 450, the decrease of electrical efficiency with the temperature is 0.08% per?C.

<em>The purpose of this study is to determine how the structure, market concentration and efficiency of the property industry in Indonesia. The analysis technique used in this research is Concentration Ratio (CR10), Herfindahl Index-Hirschman (IHH) and Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA). Total revenue of the Indonesia property industry from 2010-2014 is used to calculate Concentration Ratio (CR10) and Herfindahl Index-Hirschman (IHH), while the Data Envelopment Analysis (DEA) is input and output, the input consists of total assets, debt, and equity, the output consists of total sales and profits. Based on the analysis the results of Concentration Ratio (CR10) is quite high, ranging from 74.65% - 77.16%, the market structure in the property industry classified within a tight oligopoly. Based on IHH has a range of numbers from 0.1013 to 0.56667, which means competition Indonesian property industry and the competitive nature of high concentration. Results DEA in 2010-2010 there are 4-8 efficient companies. As a result of which are oligopolistic and competitive, the companies in the property industry are doing a lot in marketing strategy as well as to achieve efficient companies should refer to the property industry has already reached the maximum efficient rate.</em>
