Thermal performance of unglazed roof-mounted solar thermal collectors
Figure 3.0: Effect of changing aspect ratio on average Nusselt number at 0 wind incidence Figure 4.0 : Effect of changing aspect ratio on average Nusselt number at 45⁰ wind incidence Since collectors are installed to face different geographical locations based on latitude, the impact of the directional dependence of wind flow speeds over roof-mounted collectors is significant.

Solahart 302L Solar Hot Water System
The 302L solar system has its vitreous enamel lined solar storage tank installed on the roof directly coupled to the solar collectors. It works on the simple scientific fact that hot water rises. As the sun heats the water in the solar collectors, the increase in temperature causes the water to rise through an insulated copper pipe into the storage tank. Copper is used for the risers for its ...
