Abstract

This study discusses the results of an experimental analysis of an active space heating system. The solar installation mainly includes two flat-plate solar collectors, a liquid-to-liquid heat exchanger, a storage tank, a liquid-to-air heat exchanger, two circulation pumps, an expansion tank, and several valves. By the aid of an instrumentation system, mainly consisting of two pyranometers, 20 gauge copper-Constantan thermocouples, a digital multimeter, and a recorder, total solar radiation incident on the collectors, temperature fluctuations of the working fluids at the intersections of the major system components, and the room space and ambient temperatures were recorded throughout the heating period. The system was designed to operate in direct and indirect modes. Several conclusions are drawn to improve the system overall efficiency, and some inconveniences observed in the operation are discussed.
