Simple Empirical Relation for an Evacuated-Tube Solar Collector Performance Prediction from Solar Intensity

In this paper, the effect of solar intensity on the heat pipe tip temperature in a heat pipe type—evacuated-tube solar collector (HP-ETSC) was investigated. A simple relation was proposed, relating the solar intensity to the heat pipe tip temperature generated from the experimental data. This simple...
