Question:
A flat plate solar collector of 3 m x 5 m area has an absorber plate that is to operate at a temperature of 70?C. To reduce heat losses, a glass cover is placed 0.05 m from the absorber and its operating temperature is estimated at 35?C. Determine the rate of heat loss from the absorber if the 3 m edge is tilted at angles of inclination from the horizontal of 0?, 30?, and 60?.GIVENA flat plate solar collectorArea = 3 m x 5 mAbsorber temperature (Ta) = 70?CGlass cover temperature (Tc) = 30?CDistance between absorber and cover (δ) = 0.05 mASSUMPTIONSThe space is airfilled
