Summary

Reports a side-by-side test on glazed and an unglazed collector/regenerator (C/R) operating under identical environmental conditions is also described. A simulation study to identify variables affecting the performance. The unglazed C/R performed better than the glazed C/R for the conditions considered. Contrary to previous research, the data showed an increase in evaporation rate as the gap height was decreased from 15 to 7 centimeters. The glazing also helped to maintain cleaner absorbent solution and reduce waste due to rain.
