Evaluation studies of a mixed mode solar kiln with phase change material and distributed-type solar kiln

The passive thermal performance of a distributed and mixed-mode model solar kiln was compared in the present study. The two kilns were made of double glazed flat plate thermal collector in which paraffin was used as the thermal storage medium. The range of ambient temperatures and daily radiation du...
