Drop of coolant temperature in individual components of solar heating system
Abstract
Temperature drops in low temperature heating systems are very critical and must be minimized in each individual component of such a system. The mean temperature of the coolant in a solar heating system is considered. The drops of this mean temperature in the first loop and in the second loop, relative to the temperature of the radiation receiving surface of the heat collector are calculated on the basis of the corresponding equations of heat balance. The drop of the mean coolant temperature from first loop to second loop is calculated. Numerical data are given for an RSG-2 stamped steel radiator serving as heat collector in a solar heating plant.
