Design of a Site-Built Integrated Collector Storage Solar Water Heater Under Uncertainty
A straightforward framework for identifying key design parameters and determining their values for a site-built integrated collector storage solar water heater (ICSSWH) under uncertainty is developed. The framework is then used to evaluate the design for a ICSSWH, which uses locally available materials and can be assembled by builders without specialized training in solar system construction. I...
متن کاملOptimization of the PCM-integrated solar domestic hot water system under different thermal stratification conditions
Many researchers have investigated how to increase the overall efficiency of solar-driven thermal systems. Several key parameters, such as collector efficiency and storage tank characteristics, may impose some constraints on the annual solar fraction (ASF) of such systems. In this paper, the behaviour of integrating the phase change material (PCM) in SDHW systems is modelled and optimized n...

متن کاملExperimental Study on an Enhanced Performance Solar Water Heater
The paper presents preliminary results of an experimental study on solar water heater with full width and 75% twisted tapes as heat transfer enhancement device. The study shows that the thermal efficiency due the use of the twisted tape increases by 4.5-8%; higher for the 75% twisted tape. Keyword Solar water heater (collector), tube-in-fin, twisted tape, thermal efficiency, performance enhance...
متن کاملAn experimental investigation on the performance of a symmetric conical solar collector using SiO2/water nanofluid
One of the effective methods to improve the thermal efficiency of solar collectors is using nanofluids as the coolant. The present study experimentally investigated the effect of SiO2/water nanofluid with 1% mass fraction on the performance of a symmetric collector, i.e. conical solar collector. The conical solar collector with 1 m2 area and normal to the earth was tested in Ahvaz, a city in th...
