Numerical Simulation on V Shaped Solar Flat-Plate Air Collector

Abstract:

The V-shaped solar flat-plate air collector was design in order to improve the efficiency of solar flat-plate air collector, and the heat transfer model was established on the base of solar collector working principle. Internal temperature distribution of collector and temperature change rule under different sunshine condition is simulated and the relation of collector height, solar radiation intensity and collector efficiency is analyzed. The result showed that internal air temperature of collector increases with collector height increase and gradually achieves a stable value. It will provide a theoretical basis for collector layout of solar house.
