The Thermal Behavior of a Dual-Function Solar Collector Integrated with Building: An Experimental and Numerical Study on the Air Heating Mode

This paper presented a novel solar collector that can work in air or water heating mode depending on the seasonal requirement. The dual-function solar collector (DFSC) integrated with a building as well as a reference building without the DFSC were built to test thermal behavior in passive air heati...
