Monitoring Solar Heating Systems: A Practical Handbook

Sizing of a Packed Bed Storage for Solar Air Heating Systems (TECHNICAL NOTE)

Packed bed units generally, represent the most suitable storage units for air heating solar systems. In these systems the storage unit receives the heat from the collector during the collection period and discharges the heat to the building at the retrieval process. A method for sizing of packedbed storage in an air heating system is represented. The design is based on the K-S curves, which hav...

Practical Handbook of Bacteriology

The new edition of Mackie and McCartney's "Practical Handbook of Bacteriology" shouli be a very useful volume for the student of bacteriology and the laboratory worker. It is divided into three sections, the first and third being devoted to immunology and general bacteriology respectively. The more important phenomena of immunity and details of the more commonly occurring bacteria are set out w...

Investigating the effect of hot water consumption profile on the performance of solar water heating systems

In this paper, a forced circulation solar water heater system is simulated for different hot water consumption profiles using flat plate collectors as well as evacuated tube collectors. The profiles studied are the actual samples of hot water consumption profiles for different commercial centers and institutions. Dynamic simulation outputs of system thermal performance are used as economic anal...
