ANALISA EFISIENSI KOLEKTOR SURYA PLAT DATAR DENGAN DEBIT ALIRAN FLUIDA 3-10 LITER/MENIT
Abstract: Solar thermal energy
is one of the potential energy to be explored and developed further as a source
of backup energy. To be able to directly utilize solar thermal energy to heat
water can be used in a device that can collectsolar energy to the Earth's
surface and convert it back into useful heat energy. This device is called the
solarcollector. Solar collectors can be defined as a heat transfer system that
generates thermal energy by harnessingthe Sun's radiation as the main source of
energy. After testing by varying the flow capacity of 3 litters /minute upto 10
liters/minute, then in the temperature of the fluid can come out (Tout) is the
highest of 61,9 C, which ispresent on the stream discharge 7,5 litters/minute.
And the highest efficiency in the discharge flow of 5 litters/minute is equal
to 86,54%. The results of this test indicate the efficiency of the collector
surya.
