Efficiency and exergy analysis of a new solar air heater

Renewable Energy, 2004, vol. 29, issue 9, 1489-1501

Abstract: It would be misleading to consider only the cost aspect of the design of a solar collector. High service costs increase total costs during the service life of solar collector. The most effective way to save energy is by increasing the efficiency in a solar collector by the heat transfer coefficient.
