Thermal solar collector considers one of the main devices employed to transform energy into thermal and can be classified three types named Evacuated tube (ETC), flat plate (FPC), compound parabolic (CPC) collector. In this study, where it was taken evacuated collectors different geometries inner pipe diameter were proposed combined with type phase change materials (PCM) evaluate their performa...

Reducing the use of conventional energy in agricultural production and food processing via using renewable is one key points to protect our environment. Solar radiation might be an excellent source for replacing traditional heat sources drying technology. This study aims analyze investigate efficiency different solar collectors apply products drying. Seven have been developed manufactured exper...

Solar desalination has captivated consideration to overcome the problem of scarcity freshwater, with simple-design, economic, and environment-friendly solutions. This study navigates a novel solar-evacuated glass tube collector integrated collective condenser heat pipe system for solar desalination. A newly designed array was represented in this work by affixing all evaporator units pipes singl...

The background of this article is the potential energy savings solar heat supply systems due to use renewable radiation. motivation create a collector design that would combine functions both building cover and collector. It necessary investigate compare different types coatings (traditional modern) pipe diameters. purpose solve aspects efficiency for new eco-friendly collectors. most effective...

This experimental study investigates the advantage of using Mn–Zn Fe2O4/water ferrofluid subjected to effect a non-uniform magnetic field on thermal efficiency fabricated cylindrical solar collector with receiver in shape helical pipe. Using ASHRAE Standard, this has investigated influence nanoparticles volume fraction (0.0–1.0%), mass flow rate fluid (0.00415–0.033 kg/s), and produced by set p...
