Methods of testing to determine the thermal performance of flat-plate solar collectors containing a boiling liquid. (ASHRAE standard)

Technical Report

The purpose of this standard is to provide test methods for determining the thermal performance of flat-plate solar energy collectors that use boiling fluids for thermal energy transfer.
Uncertainty in determining thermal performance of liquid-heating flat-plate solar collectors

Journal Article Streed, E; Waksman, D - J. Sol. Energy Eng.; (United States)

Thermal performance measurements of eight types of liquid-heating flat-plate solar collectors were conducted with two to four collectors of each type at four outdoor test sites. Tests were performed in accordance with the procedure prescribed by ASHRAE Standard 93-77. Statistical analysis of data sets for each collector type within test sites and between test sites was done using ASTM recommended methods to evaluate test method measurement uncertainty.

Experimental analysis of thermal performance of flat plate and evacuated tube solar collectors in stationary standard and daily conditions

Journal Article Zambolin, E; Del Col, D - Solar Energy

New comparative tests on two different types of solar collectors are presented in this paper. A standard glazed flat plate collector and an evacuated tube collector are installed in parallel and tested at the same working conditions; the evacuated collector is a direct flow through type with external compound parabolic concentrator (CPC) reflectors. Efficiency in steady-state and quasi-dynamic conditions is measured following the standard and it is compared with the input/output curves measured for the whole day. The first purpose of the present work is the comparison of results in steady-state and quasi-dynamic test methods both for flat plate andmore »« less

Analysis and design of air heating unglazed flat plate solar collectors

Technical Report Alcone, J; Donaldson, A; Schimmel, Jr, W

A simplified analysis of unglazed flat plate air heating collectors is developed for use in conjunction with studies of systems involving these collectors. To develop the analysis, an energy balance is formulated for a generalized unglazed collector configuration and then solved via the Laplace transform technique. The analysis was verified by application to a collector configuration for which experimental results are available. Based on the verified analysis, preliminary design and optimization procedures are developed and illustrated by example. A discussion of the relative importance and interplay of the various parameters used to describe collector performance is developed via sensitivity analysismore »« less
Presentation of thermal performance ratings for solar collectors

Journal Article

The Solar Rating and Certification Corporation (SRCC) is a non-profit organization whose primary purpose is the development and implementation of certification programs and national rating standards for solar energy equipment. The SRCC solar collector certification and rating program was established to provide the general public and technical community with reliable and comparable performance data on solar collectors currently being sold in the marketplace. The collector thermal performance ratings contained in the directory provide both the consumer and the manufacturer with a tool for making informed comparisons between collector models and collector types over a broad range of end-use applications.
