Exergy Analysis of Flat Plate Solar Collectors [PDF]
Entropy, 2014 This study proposes the concept of the local heat loss coefficient and examines the calculation method for the average heat loss coefficient and the average absorber plate temperature. It also presents an exergy analysis model of flat plate collectors, considering non-uniformity in temperature distribution along the absorber plate.

Multivariable controller for stationary flat plate solar collectors [PDF]
2018 7th International Conference on Systems and Control (ICSC), 2018 The water flow rate control, which is the principal control loop required to operate stationary solar fields, can be as simple as designing a PID controller for a unique pump whose behavior can be approximated by a first-order system with delay. Nevertheless, when the water flow rate is manipulated with multiple actuators (pumps or valves), the problem
