Optimizing Efficiency of Solar Double-Pass Air Heater through Fluid Combination Approach
Abhishek Agarwal
Abstract:The solar air_heater (SAH) is one of the main devices that are used for harnessing solar energy for multipurpose functions. The double-pass solar air_heater (DPSAH) is an advanced model with ducts that transport the air to the two leaves of the loops. This technology is applied where space heating, thermal energy for drying processes, heat pumping applications, etc. are required. This investigation aims to determine the thermal characteristics of an air heater with a double-pass design that works by using CFD … Show more
