Thermal Performance Analysis of Flat Plate Solar Collector and Solar Dryer of Indirect Solar Drying System
Abstract: The objective of this study is to investigate the thermal performance of a flat plate solar collector and solar dryer experimentally. The expressions for efficiency of solar collector andsolar dryer with phase change material (PCM) storage system in quasi-steady state conditions have been derived. The analysis is based on the basic energy balance forthe system. A computer model has been developed to predict the various performance parameters of the solar …
