Аннотация

The effectiveness of a screen type absorber, of uniform and non-uniform mesh, on the performance of a solar air heater is analyzed theoretically and experimentally. The collector under investigation is constructed with two transparent cover plates, and the air is sucked below this cover, through the screens and out by a drift fan. The results indicate that one screen is more efficient than all multi-screen arrangements over the flow rates normally encountered in this application, 20 < m < 60.
