With the recent decreasing trend in solar PV module pricing, this work evokes a development of 3-tier solar PV drying chamber with multiple heater combination for heat dissipation effect. The temperature performance are measured based on 360 Wp and 540 Wp DC power supply. The construction of the PV dryer is designed with 0.66 m × 0.66 m × 0.8 m dimension, comprising three trays with an effective area...
In this research paper, an attempt has been made to come across the effect of multiple glazing covers on the efficiency of a solar thermal collector. This experimental investigation was carried out on an active solar energy demonstration system (ET 200), illuminated with a halogen lamp. Three commercial glass panes of 3 mm thickness, having the same dimensions as that of the apparatus glazing, were...
Today the market is open to new solutions that integrate solar thermal and photovoltaic (PV) devices into a single element in order to generate electricity and heat, the so-called photovoltaic thermal (PV/T or PVT) hybrid solar collectors. The PVT modules improve the performance of PV modules keeping the cells cooled, increasing the overall efficiency of the panel. One stand test for hybrid PVT systems...
In present study two identical with same dimensions, experimental set up of flat plate collectors using -heat pipes were fabricated. In each set up three identical wickless copper heat pipes are used having length 620 mm and outer diameter of 18 mm. The working fluid used in one set up is pure water and in another pure water with nanoparticles.
A study of the function performance of paraffin material in phase change thermal storing was presented. An experimental device was set up for the performance tests of the concentric tube-type phase-change heat store and for the investigation of the phase transition temperature field changing over time under constant temperature condition. Comparisons were carried out between the effects of changing...
