Abstract:This study undertakes an experimental and computational evaluation of a dual-flow solar air heater (SAH) equipped with three distinct types of absorber plates: flat, trapezoidal, and U-corrugated. Experiments were conducted under actual outdoor weather conditions in Baghdad, Iraq (33.31º N, 44.36º E) during varying days in April and May 2022. The collector, oriented south (surface azimuth angle = zero due south) and tilted at an angle of 30º from the horizontal, was scrutinized under four different airflow ra… Show more
