Finite element analysis of a solar collector plate using two plate geometries

The thermal behavior of an absorber plate in a solar collector is investigated using finite element analysis. The thermal behavior and efficiency of two absorber plate geometries are studied, using a typical solar collector with a rectangular profile as reference, and a proposed absorber plate with...

Se investiga el comportamiento térmico y la eficiencia de dos geometrías de plato absorbedor, un colector solar típico con plato absorbedor rectangular, utilizado como referencia, y una propuesta con geometría curva. Un análisis de los parámetros más importantes que intervienen en el diseño de la placa de absorción se llevó a cabo, indicando que la geometría curva de la placa de absorción ofrece una eficiencia media ~25% mayor que la geometría rectangular convencional. Los resultados sugieren que un perfil curvado hecho de materiales tales como aluminio con conductividad térmica mayor a 200W/m°C, espesor de placa del orden de 2 a 3mm y una mayor densidad de tubos por unidad de área de la placa de absorción, beneficia en gran medida la eficiencia térmica del colector solar.application/pdfspaUniversidad Nacional de Colombia - Sede Bogotá - Facultad de Ingenieríahttps://revistas.unal.edu.co/index.php/ingeinv/article/view/56071Universidad Nacional de Colombia Revistas electrónicas UN Ingeniería e InvestigaciónIngeniería e InvestigaciónMedina Carril, Diego Manuel and Carrillo Baeza, José Gonzalo and Dominguez Maldonado, Ruben and Aviles Cetina, Francis (2016) Finite element analysis of a solar collector plate using two plate geometries.
