dc.description.abstract | Modeling and simulation areconsidered as fast and cheap analytical tools byengineers in developing optimal solar energy systems for a given application prior to their construction. This study involved modeling and simulation of the solar air heater system. The modeling results showed a good agreement with the experimental results and the model wasused to investigatethe effects of the design parameters on the performance of SAH. It was observed that the efficiency of the collector increases with increase in both the collector length and width andthe systemattains its optimum values of efficiency between 1.0 to 2.0 m. In addition, better performances of the collector are obtained with smaller channel depths. | en_US |
