A Numerical Model for Thermal Performance of an Unglazed Transpired Solar Collector

Abstract: In this paper, we will present a numerical model for estimating the thermal performance of unglazed transpired solar collectors located on the Breck School campus in Minneapolis, Minnesota. The solar collectors are installed adjacent to the southeast facing wall of a field house. The collectors preheat the intake air before entering the primary heating unit. The solar collector consists of 8 separate panels (absorber plates). Four fans are connected to the plenum that is created by the absorber plates and the … Show more

“…These systems have spread slowly around the world [1]. Economic and technical characteristics of system such as solar wall structure, usage areas, increasing efficiency have been studied by many researchers [3][4][5][6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13][14]. For example; Hollick summarized working principle of UTC, examples of applications, monitoring results, and the potential use of this technology [3,4].…”
