Numerical and Experimental Study of Flow Characteristics in Solar Collector Manifolds
The flow through a forced circulation Z-type flat plate solar collector was investigated by means of combined experimental measurements and numerical simulations. The efficient operation of such collectors depends on the uniformity of the flow rate distribution among their riser tubes, while low pum...
