[TRNSYS-users] Glazed air collector

[Matt Duffy]

Dear Nidal Abdalla, 

I have used Type539 (Glazed Flat Plate Solar
Collector from TESS Solar Library) with success for a solar air
collector. Since the solar air collector was here in the states, they
had the SRCC rating numbers for the efficiency and IAM's, so I could
simply enter those numbers into the parameters of Type539. Since this
solar collector model and many others in TRNSYS assume a constant fluid
specific heat, you can implement solar air heating simulations with
them. 

Best regards, 

Matt Duffy

recommend the best choice for collector type can be used? I found at the
TRNSY archives 2010 that Mr. David had mentioned that there are a number
of air-based solar collectors available in the TESS Solar Component. In
fact, I found only unglazed air collector in the TESS lib. I am
wondering if someone can help me.
