Abstract: The top cover of a flat plate solar collector is generally exposed to wind. In indoor experiments it is necessary to simulate this wind. Correlations have been developed for the wind heat transfer coefficient over flat horizontal surfaces exposed to forced air flow, produced by industrial fans in indoor experiments.
