Overview

Analytical study evaluates thermal performance in solar air heaters, suggesting double-flow systems are more efficient.

Key Points

  • The aim is to evaluate and compare the thermal performance of single-flow and double-flow solar air heaters.
  • Developed an analytical model to describe thermal behavior
  • Compared heat-transfer areas of single-flow and double-flow configurations
  • Examined the impact of mass flow rate fraction on efficiency
  • Double-flow solar air heaters show superior thermal performance compared to single-flow systems
  • Increased heat-transfer surface area leads to enhanced efficiency
  • The analytical model confirms the influence of mass flow rate on system efficiency
