Optimum exergy efficiency of solar collectors
International Journal of Energy Research, 1989 An optimum exergy efficiency is derived for flat-plate solar collectors as a ratio of exergy delivery of the collector to the maximum output exergy obtainable. It is a function of the optimum mass flow rate through the collector, which itself is obtained through an optimization of the exergy delivery of the collector.
