Calorimetric determinations of bond conductances in pipe and fin type flat-plate solar collectors

Applied Energy, 1981, vol. 9, issue 1, 77-82

Abstract: A simple indoor calorimetric test set up for measuring the bond conductance in pipe and fin type flat-plate solar collectors at different tube and fin temperatures under steady-state conditions has been developed. With this apparatus several new clamping arrangements can be developed. Tests on the wrapped and wired aluminium fin showed a very significant improvement, with bond conductance being about 22 kcal/m/h °C. The wrapped and wired aluminium fin with heat conducting cement showed maximum promise.
