  4. 2. Gas-filled, flat plate solar collectors

    Author : Johan Vestlund; Chalmers tekniska högskola; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Mechanical stresses; collector material; heated cavity; Modelling; Solar collectors;

    Abstract : This work treats the thermal and mechanical performances of gas-filled, flat plate solar collectors in order to achieve a better performance than that of air filled collectors. The gases examined are argon, krypton and xenon which all have lower thermal conductivity than air. The absorber is formed as a tray connected to the glass. READ MORE

    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Solar Energy; Photovoltaic-Thermal PVT ; Concentration; Collector Testing; Silicon Cell Encapsulation; Ray Tracing; Market Survey; String Layout; Prototype Collectors; Solenergi; Fotovoltaisk-termisk PVT ; Koncentration; Solfångarprovning; Inkapsling av kiselceller; Strålgångsberäkning; Marknadsundersökning; Strängdesign; Solfångarprototyper; Hållbar stadsutveckling; Sustainable Urban Development;

    Abstract : Fossil fuels have greatly improved human living standards and saved countless lives. However, today, their continued use threatens human survival, as CO2 levels rise at an unprecedented pace to levels never seen during human existenceon earth. READ MORE

  7. 5. Solar Thermal Collectors at High Latitudes : Design and performance of non-tracking concentrators

    Author : Monika Adsten; Manuel Collares-Pereira; Uppsala universitet; []
    Keywords : TEKNIK OCH TEKNOLOGIER; ENGINEERING AND TECHNOLOGY; Materials science; Solar thermal collectors; concentrators; CPC; high latitudes; Materialvetenskap; Solfångare; koncentratorer; höga latituder; Materials science; Teknisk materialvetenskap; Solid State Physics; fasta tillståndets fysik;

    Abstract : Solar thermal collectors at high latitudes have been studied, with emphasis on concentrating collectors. A novel design of concentrating collector, the Maximum Reflector Collector (MaReCo), especially designed for high latitudes, has been investigated optically and thermally. READ MORE
