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].

Solar motors with flat-plate collectors
Solar Energy, 1966Abstract Research at the Laboratory of Meteorological Physics of the University of Dakar has been devoted for several years to the study of solarenergy utilization. An experimental solar motor has been operating since August 1962. This motor drives a pump lifting 8 to 10 liters water per minute from a depth of 13 meters.

The Performance of Flat-Plate Solar Heat Collectors
Journal of Fluids Engineering, 1942Abstract The great magnitude of solar-energy flux on the earth has stimulated a number of attempts at its more effective utilization during the last 60 years. Mouchot (1, 2) and Pifre (3, 2) in France, Shuman (4) in Egypt, Ericsson (5), Willsie (6), Shuman (7), and more recently Abbot (8) in America are but a few of the names associated ...

Long-term performance of flat-plate solar collectors
Applied Energy, 1980Abstract 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

Exergetic optimization of flat plate solar collectors
Renewable Energy, 2009In this paper, an exergetic optimization of flat plate solar collectors is developed to determine the optimal performance and design parameters of these solar to thermal energy conversion systems. A detailed energy and exergy analysis is carried out for evaluating the thermal and optical performance, exergy flows and losses as well as exergetic ...

Optimizing the efficiency of solar flat plate collector with trapezoidal reflector
, 2019Solar 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.

Stationary reflector-augmented flat-plate collectors
Solar Energy, 1982Abstract A general procedure for determining the optimum geometry of a reflector-augmented solar collector which produces a desired pattern of flux-augmentation is described. The example used for illustration is a stationary collector whose winter performance is to be improved. Consideration both a flat-plate collector with a bottom reflector and one
