|
In present study solar air heater duct performance is enhanced using perforated plate structure in it. In this study, simple rectangular array design is investigated experimentally and compared with simple solar air heater duct. Design is installed in two parallel installation combinations. Experimental setup has been fabricated to investigate the effects. Effect on Heat transfer has been investigated for 4 different mass flow rates. Arrangement has been tested for Mass Flow Rates of 0.05, 0.065, 0.08 and 0.095(all in kg/s) It was found that due to Presence of Perforated Plates, heat transfer enhanced up to 3.3 times in comparison to smooth ducts. |
