Abstract

The modeling analyses of the mass area ratios of the flat-plate and evacuated tubular solar water systems were conducted based on the daily solar radiation model and the solar collector energy output model in the paper. The results show that the simulations of the mass area ratios are well consistent with the experimental data and their relative errors do not exceed 10%. The mass area ratios of the solar collector integrated in large-tilt-angle ( 70°- 90°) with south facades of the residential buildings in five meteorologic regions including 133 cities in China were calculated and analyzed. For convenient use in practice, parameter correlations between the mass area ratios of solar hot water systems and the main meteorologic variables were analyzed by using the linear polynomial regression technique. The correlations of solar hot water systems used in summer and winter were been given in the paper. These results give a useful tool to calculate and improve the mass area ratios of the solar collector integration in large-tilt-angle with the south facades of buildings.
