Summary: | 碩士 === 淡江大學 === 化學工程與材料工程學系碩士班 === 98 === The study reveals that good agreement between simulation and experimental results was achieved. GAMBIT can plan the same geometry structure with experimental, and use FLUENT to establish boundary condition, liquid properties. We read the data and the temperature contours from Fluent.
The heat exchanger flow rate and surface area are important factors to increase the performance of solar thermal systems. The paper deals with flow rate and surface area in closed loop flat plate solar collector systems. The system employs a flat-plate collector with a surface area of 3.6 m2 to drive a storage thermal tank (61.6 L). The heat and cold pipe heat exchangers in the storage tank. The rate of discharge is 0.471 l/min passes over in the heat pipe, and the rate of discharge is 0.094 l/min passes over the cold tube. The performance of this system is presented and compared with simulated results.
