A building integrated solar collector: All-ceramic solar collector

Energy and Buildings, 2013
Abstract A type of all-ceramic flat plate solar collector is introduced. These all-ceramic solar collectors are made from ordinary ceramic and V–Ti black ceramic. The solar absorptance of black ceramic coatings is in the range of 0.93–0.97. The all-ceramic solar collector is characterized by low cost, long lifetime, no attenuation of absorptance, and

Façade solar collectors

Solar Energy, 2006
Rational use of energy in buildings leads to a concept of active energy facades such as transparently insulated massive walls, solar thermal or PV facades, advanced glazings for daylighting purposes or double ventilated facades. The paper is concerned with the facade-integrated solar thermal collectors concept for water heating in the existing building

Sealants for solar collectors

Industrial & Engineering Chemistry Product Research and Development, 1981
Elastomeric sealants employed in thermal solar collectors are subjected to extremely harsh conditions. In order to function properly for long periods of time, they must exhibit good resistance to environmental factors such as high and low temperature extremes, oxygen, ozone, water, and ultraviolet radiation.

Efficiency of solar collectors

Energy Conversion, 1976
Abstract Flat plate and concentrating-type solar collector efficiencies are determined at different temperatures using plain black and selective absorbing surfaces with plain glass and specially coated reflecting glass windows and at different air masses.

Concrete Solar Collector

2017
Concrete solar collector is an attempt to create an effective alternative for conventional solar collectors. Concrete has high heat storage capacity. Also, the problem of corrosion automatically gets eliminated due to the alkaline characteristic of cement. Cement concrete plays the role of heat absorber while the flow tubes are made up of copper.

Testing of Solar Collectors

1986
The parameters which determine the performance of a collector are the operating temperature, fluid flow rate, solar insolation, orientation, tilt, time of the day, wind conditions, outdoor temperatures, clearness of the sky etc. Due to large variations in these parameters, the performance of these systems used to be often expressed in an arbitrary ...

SOLAR COLLECTOR

2016
The invention relates to a solar collector, thus a device with which sunlight can be converted into a different form of energy, preferably electric energy. In particular, the invention relates to a solar collector (20) which comprises a plurality of solar panels (10, 12, 14, 16) that extend substantially on a panel surface, each solar panel comprising ...

Tubular solar collector

Applied Energy, 1980
Abstract Details of the design and development of an inexpensive solar collector system which does not make use of a blackened metal plate as an absorber are given in this paper. A spiral-shaped plastic tube coated with a black paint constitutes the solar absorber.
