Abstract:In this study, the thermal performance of a newly designed solar air heater was examined using a thoughtfully designed and analysed experimental methodology. In the analysis, three factors (collector type, bed height, and airflow rate) were adjusted and their effects on the performance of the system were evaluated; additionally, mesh layers were used to act as absorber plates. The single and counter flow collectors were also examined using different bed heights (3 cm, 5 cm, and 7 cm) at various airflow rates (… Show more
