metadata.dc.contributor.other: | Μιχαηλίδης, Ιωάννης | Major Field of Science: | Social Sciences | Keywords: | Water heaters;Energy conservation;Solar energy | Issue Date: | 1992 | Source: | Applied Energy,1992, vol. 41, no. 2, pp. 149-163 | Volume: | 41 | Issue: | 2 | Start page: | 149 | End page: | 163 | Journal: | Applied Energy | Abstract: | The instantaneous collector-efficiency has been determined as a function of the time of day and correlated with the thermosyphonic-flow rate of water and the temperature difference between the water at the collector's inlet and outlet. The model was also used to predict the monthly and yearly solar-contribution of the system for two different load profiles. The results of the simulation indicate that the yearly solar contribution of the system for a low-consumption profile is about 89% as compared with 63% for a high consumption pattern. | URI: | https://hdl.handle.net/20.500.14279/1560 | ISSN: | 03062619 | DOI: | 10.1016/0306-2619(92)90042-A | Rights: | ©Elsevier Science | Type: | Article | Affiliation: | Higher Technical Institute Cyprus | Affiliation : | Higher Technical Institute Cyprus Polytechnic of Central London |
