Performance comparison of two-pass modified reverse flat-plate collector with conventional flat-plate collectors

Energy Conversion and Management, 1983
Abstract The performance of a modified reverse flat-plate collector with air as working fluid is studied. The results are compared with the corresponding results of a reverse flat-plate collector originally proposed as well as with normal flat-plate collectors operating under single and two pass modes.

Flat-Plate Collector Analysis

1984
The flat-plate solar collector is essentially a heat exchanger in which the radiant energy of the Sun is converted to low-grade thermal energy. The concept is not new as some of the earliest recorded examples of the use of flat-plate collectors occurred around a hundred years ago [4.1, 4.2].

The ‘Albedo’ Flat-Plate Solar Collector

1984
In the ‘albedo’ flat-plate collector, the rear solid insulation is replaced by an air-gap and window. With the collector mounted some distance above a white roof or ground, the absorber is irradiated also on its rear face, by sun and sky radiation reflected from the roof, thereby increasing the income of radiation in the order of 20–60%.

Optimizing the efficiency of solar flat plate collector with trapezoidal reflector

, 2019
Solar flat plate collectors are the most vital parts of a solar heating system. The collector plate absorbs the energy from the sun and transforms this radiation into heat and then transmit this heat into a fluid, it can either water or air.

Long-term performance of flat-plate solar collectors

Applied Energy, 1980
Abstract A simple model is used to calculate the angular and time dependence of solar radiation. The resulting computer program is particularly suited to the evaluation of the performance of a solar system as a function of the collector area; it is used as a subroutine in a program determining the optimal dimensions of a solar system according to the

An evaluation of a transverse slatted flat plate collector

Solar Energy, 1982
Abstract It is generally accepted that the insertion of a type of honeycomb structure into the air gap between the absorber plate and the transparent cover of a flat plate solar collector will suppress convection if the honeycomb dimensions are matched to the particular dimensions and operating temperatures of the collector. However relatively little

Flat-Plate and Evacuated Tube Collectors

2013
Solar-energy collectors are devices employed to gain useful heat energy from the incident solar radiation. They can be of the concentrating or the flat-plate type. A simple flat-plate solar energy collector consists basically of an absorbing surface which absorbs the insolation and transmit it in form of heat to a working fluid commonly air or water. A

Thermal performance testing of flat-plate collectors

Solar Energy, 2008
Abstract Existing standards for testing the performance of flat-plate solar collectors are documented in ASHRAE 93 [ANSI/ASHRAE Standard 93-2003, 2003. Methods of Testing to Determine Thermal Performance of Solar Collectors, ISSN: 1041-2336, ASHRAE, Inc., 1791 Tullie Circle, Ne, Atlanta, GA30329], ISO 9806-1 [ISO Standard 9806-1:1994(E), 1994.
