Abstract

In recent years, energy consumption has continuously been increasing, and the energy consumption proportion in buildings has risen yearly. In order to promote the carbon-neutral goal of carbon peaking, the building sector realizes green and low-carbon transformation. This paper proposes a new type of solar flat plate collector with an additional transparent cover made by the ETFE film, which is tested for thermal performance under different environmental and operational parameters. The Ansys Fluent software was used to build a three-dimensional steady-state model of the collector, which can simulate the collector components’ temperature and the mass outlet temperature under the test conditions. The collector’s instantaneous heat collection efficiency curve fitted by comparing and analyzing the theoretical, experimental, and simulated data. The instantaneous efficiency intercept was 0.72, and the heat loss coefficient was 3.94 W/(m 2 ·K). The results show that the collector efficiency of the ETFE film structure collector is 18.6% higher, and the heat loss coefficient is 27.3% lower than that of an ordinary collector under standard mass flow conditions.
