Investigation of the Enhancement of Heat Transfer in a Flat Plate Solar Collector With a Corrugated Tube Under Thermosiphon Effect
Ewerton Ferreira Lopes,
Leandro Oliveira Salviano
Abstract:The development of new technologies for energy generation and use has been increasing significantly. In this projection, the use of flat solar collectors to convert solar energy into thermal energy through water heating for residential and commercial purposes has grown due to the potential reduction of up to 40% in electrical energy consumption promoted by these devices. A promising but underexplored area in engineering is the study of the intensification of heat transfer in these devices by changing the dimen… Show more
