ASHMET: A computer code for estimating insolation incident on tilted surfaces [PDF]
A computer code, ASHMET, was developed by MSFC to estimate the amount of solar insolation incident on the surfaces of solar collectors. Both tracking and fixed-position collectors were included. Climatological data for 248 U. S.

Mathematical Modeling and Optimization of Vanadium-Titanium Black Ceramic Solar Collectors
The vanadium-titanium black ceramic (VTBC) coating on all-ceramic solar collectors has both high absorptance (0.94) and high emissivity (90%). However, the thermal conductivity of ceramic is very low (1.256 W/mK).

DETERMINATION OF THE EFFICIENCY OF SOLAR COLLECTORS APPLIED IN REGIONS WITH LOW SOLAR RADIATION
The article discusses the issues of using solar collectors as an alternative source of energy for areas remote from power grids. One of the main criteria when choosing solar collectors is the choice of a working fluid for heat transfer.

Enhancing the solar-to-thermal energy conversion in high vacuum flat plate solar collectors [PDF]
In solar flat plate collectors, the high vacuum insulation suppresses the convective losses increasing the collector efficiency. The solar-to-thermal energy conversion efficiency in such solar thermal collectors is mainly defined by the optical and ...
