Finite element modelling of a solar collector
A mathematical model of a serpentine flat-plate solar collector using finite elements is presented. The numerical simulations focus on the thermal and hydrodynamic behaviour of the collector. The energy equation is numerically solved, as are the Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid. N...

| Zusammenfassung: | A mathematical model of a serpentine flat-plate solar collector using finite elements is presented. The numerical simulations focus on the thermal and hydrodynamic behaviour of the collector. The energy equation is numerically solved, as are the Navier-Stokes equations for an incompressible fluid. Numerical results involving one part of the serpentine are also shown. |
