Determination of thermal performance of solar air heater

Abstract

Considered the basic aspects of passive solar building. Given the main types of solar air heating systems. Proposed heating and ventilation system at the basis of solar air heater. Constructed fourfactors nomohram for determining thermal power of the thermosiphon heliocollector. Obtained analytical dependence of the amount heat of thermo heliocollector from the differential temprature air inlet and outlet, of the area input and output apertures of solar collector, heat flux intensity, angle of the roof. Submitted the analysis of the results.
