HOW HYDRONIC DESIGN AFFECTS THE PERFORMANCE OF SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTORS.

Author(s) : GILMAN S. F., NEWTON A. B.

Summary

IN A SERIES OF STUDIES OF 32 SOLAR ENERGY SYSTEMS IN THE USA, IT WAS OBSERVED THAT IN 29 SYSTEMS THE LIQUID FLOW RATE WAS NOT UNIFORMLY DISTRIBUTED IN ALL COLLECTORS AND THAT EFFICIENCY WAS NOT AS HIGH AS EXPECTED FROM THE TESTS ON INDIVIDUAL COLLECTORS. THIS SHOWS THE SIGNIFICANCE OF A SATISFACTORY HYDRONIC ANALYSIS AND AN EFFICIENT DESIGN OF COLLECTORS.
