Exergy Analysis of Flat Plate Solar Collectors
This study proposes the concept of the local heat loss coefficient and examines the calculation method for the average heat loss coefficient and the average absorber plate temperature. It also presents an exergy analysis model of flat plate collectors, considering non-uniformity in temperature distribution along the absorber plate. The computation results agree well with experimental data. The ...
متن کاملInvestigating 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...
متن کاملComparative performance assessment of flat plate and evacuated tube collectors for domestic water heating systems in Kerman, Iran
This study represents a year-round energy performance of two solar water heating (SWH) systems with a 4m2 flat plate collector (FPC) and an evacuated tube collector (ETC) operating under the same weather conditions. The energy performance of the two considered systems was compared on a monthly and yearly basis. The obtained results showed that for an annual total solar insolation of ...
متن کاملExperimental investigation on performance comparison of nanofluid-based direct absorption and flat plate solar collectors
In the present work, a prototype of a new type of solar collectors, which called Direct Absorption Solar Collector, was built and its thermal performance is experimentally compared with conventional flat plate solar collector under transient and steady state conditions. Different volume fractions of multi wall carbon nanotubes in water and ethylene glycol mixture (70%:30% in volume) were used a...
متن کاملEffect of Solar Angles on Incident Energy of the Flat Collectors
In this paper the daily, monthly, seasonally, and yearly optimum slope angles of solar collectors are determined for areas in Iran and new models are developed to calculate the monthly, seasonally, and yearly optimum slope angles for latitudes of to north. To achieve this purpose, the slope and surface azimuth angles of solar collectors for receiving maximum solar radiation were determined ...
