The distributed flow, below atmospheric pressure solar collector

Donald L. Spencer and Theodore F. Smith

Energy, 1979, vol. 4, issue 2, 287-297

Abstract: The general concepts of the vacuum-flow, flat-plate solar energy collector are discussed and previous work reviewed. Results of recent performance and freeze-tolerance test of individual modules are presented. The problems of integrating modules of the vacuum-flow type into arrays and experience with working arrays are reported. Comments are included on the economic aspects of the use of the collector as versus conventional absorbers and on the methods of assembly of the collector.
