Enhanced thermal performance of variable cross-section solar collectors: a case study in Santiniketan, India

Abstract We present analytical models for variable cross-section absorber plate solar collectors, where the thermal conductivity, overall heat loss coefficient, and incident solar heat flux are power-law functions of temperature. The rectangular cross-section absorber plate (RE) serves as the base c...
