Optimization of the PCM-integrated solar domestic hot water system under different thermal stratification conditions
Many researchers have investigated how to increase the overall efficiency of solar-driven thermal systems. Several key parameters, such as collector efficiency and storage tank characteristics, may impose some constraints on the annual solar fraction (ASF) of such systems. In this paper, the behaviour of integrating the phase change material (PCM) in SDHW systems is modelled and optimized n...
متن کاملExperimental and Numerical Investigation of Air Temperature Distribution inside a Car under Solar Load Condition
In this work both experimental and numerical analysis are carried out to investigate the effect of solar radiation on the cabin air temperature of Maruti Suzuki Celerio car parked for 90 min under solar load condition. The experimental and numerical analysis encompasses on temperature increment of air at various locations ins...
متن کاملEconomic, Energetic and Exergetic Study of a Water Tank including Pcm Modules Inside
The Research Group in Applied Energy (GREA) started a research work on Phase Change Materials (PCMs) in 1999. Since then we have been working on different aspects of these materials and have carried out a substantial amount of experiments (thickening, corrosion, heat transfer enhancement) in the laboratory with various types of phase change materials: paraffins, salt hydrates and even fatty aci...

متن کاملAn Efficient Water Flow Control Approach for Water Heaters in Direct Load Control
Tank water heaters (WHs) are present in a prevailing number of European households. Serving as energy buffers WHs have come under the spotlight of various direct load control (DLC) programs over the last few decades. Although DLC has proven to be an efficient measure towards daily peak demand shaving, the payback effect might lead to a new peak in the grid. This payback phenomenon takes place e...
