Abstract

In this paper, the optimum orientation
and sizing of a thermosyphon flat plate collector−storage solar water heating
system were determined using the typical meteorological year data for Adana,
Turkey. The typical meteorological year data for the location was taken from
Meteonorm software, and the daily hot water consumption was estimated by
utilizing the Rand hot water profile. A transient modeling was carried out for
the prediction of a full year system performance through the use of the System
Advisor Model simulation program. The effects of the collector area, the
storage tank volume, the daily average delivery temperature and the daily hot
water consumption on the annual solar fraction were analyzed by the presented
simulation model. Results showed that the optimum tilt angle for a due
south-facing solar collector is found to be 35.0° for maximizing the annual
solar fraction. The collector area and storage tank size greater than 3 m² and
100 L respectively have little effect on the solar utilization.
