چکیده

In this research, a flat plate solar collector with a triangular geometry, which is designed and built by the author and based on the ASHRAE۹۳-۲۰۱۰ standard, has been experimentally studied. The triangular solar collector has no riser and has spiral tubes containing fluid from the inlet to the outlet of the collector. To study water and Al۲O۳-water nanofluid in concentrations of ۰.۱, ۰.۲ and ۰.۳% and different flow rates from ۰.۰۰۶۳ to ۰.۰۳۷۸ lit/s have been used, which has been studied experimentally based on environmental criteria such as temperature and radiation and effective thermal parameters such as concentration and flow. Studies show that the triangular solar collector, due to its stable geometry and due to the reduction of the tube length in relation to the area, has a suitable performance for water heaters and can also be used. Time constant for triangular solar collector was between ۲.۵-۴.۵ minutes in flow rate ranges. The average efficiency increase when using nanofluids instead of water was about ۱۲.۴% and the maximum efficiency obtained at a concentration of ۰.۳% and a flow rate of ۰.۰۳۷۸ was more than ۶۸.۳%. Also, in measuring the pressure drop in the collector, it was found that the pressure drop was very small and less than ۰.۱ bar.

COI مخفف عبارت CIVILICA Object Identifier به معنی شناسه سیویلیکا برای اسناد است. COI کدی است که مطابق محل انتشار، به مقالات کنفرانسها و ژورنالهای داخل کشور به هنگام نمایه سازی بر روی پایگاه استنادی سیویلیکا اختصاص می یابد.

کد COI به مفهوم کد ملی اسناد نمایه شده در سیویلیکا است و کدی یکتا و ثابت است و به همین دلیل همواره قابلیت استناد و پیگیری دارد.
