SOLAR ENERGY COLLECTION STORAGE AND
APPLICATIONS: • Flat plate and concentrating collectors, Classification of concentrating collectors, orientation and thermal analysis, advanced collectors. Different methods, Sensible, Latent heat and stratified storage, solar ponds. • Solar Applications- solar heating/cooling technique, solar distillation and drying, photovoltaic energy conversion. It is designed for high absorption and low emission. The performance of the solar thermal collector depends on the following criteria:
• Area of the solar collector
• Total amount of solar radiation incident on the collector • Positioning of the collector’s tilt and the collector’s orientation. The performance of the solar thermal collector depends on the following criteria:
• solar collector efficiency is influenced by
several factors like heat gain, surface area, the conversion factor and heat loss through conduction and convection.
