Mathematical modeling and thermal performance analysis of unglazed transpired solar collectors
Unglazed transpired collectors or UTC (also known as perforated collectors) are a relatively new development in solar collector technology, introduced in the early nineties for ventilation air heating. These collectors are used in several large buildings in Canada, USA and Europe, effecting considerable savings in energy and heating costs. Transpired collectors are a potential replacement for g...
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...
متن کاملExperimental Investigation of Thermal Performance in an Advanced Solar Collector with Spiral Tube
This paper reports the thermal performance of a new cylindrical solar collector based on an experimental investigation with this difference that instead of the collector tube with absorbent coating, coil into a spiral copper tube is placed in the center of the collector. The spiral shape of the tube, heat transfer without disruption or increase the heat transfer area, is increasing. In this cas...
متن کاملAn experimental investigation of performance of a 3-D solar conical collector at different flow rates
The shape of a solar collector is an important factor in solar-to-thermal energy conversion. Conical shape is one of the stationary and symmetric shapes that can be employed as a solar water heater. Flow rate of working fluid on the solar collector has an important effect on the efficiency of the collector. The present study is an experimentally investigated of the performance of the solar coni...
متن کاملDirect Absorption Solar Collector using Carbon Nanotubes Nanofluid: An Experimental Investigation
In this study, the efficiency of direct absorption solar collector (DASC) using carbon nanotube nanofluid in the mixture of water and ethylene glycol as the base fluid was experimentally investigated and compared with the efficiency of the flat plate solar collector (FPSC). The results show that the maximum efficiency of the DASC using the base fluid and absorptive bottom surface is about 4.7% ...
