Hello TRNSYS-users,

 

I'm making simulations with plastic collector. Many from the commercial models can be resized, so it's almost free how to configurate the collector area. I would like to find  an optimal distribution, dependent of course on Radiation, temperatures etc..., basically how long and width for a minimum output temperature of  the fluid. Or just what is the best for a certain situation 10m*30m or 30m*10m ?. 

I ´ve already done my calculations with Excel and know that longer means higher output temperature but lower energy gain... but with trnsys  it's difficult to face the problem , 

do I take a standard unit and probe around different series und parallel distributions :-( ?

Do type 553 and 559 in TESS TRn17 do that; difference width and length (I didn't find it in the general pdf... and have just occasionally access to TRNSYS17)?

Any advice or experience?

 

So Thanks a lot!!!!!

 

 

 

 

Mit freundlichen Grüßen

Fernando Sancho Márquez
