a) working principle of the solar collectors is based on the transformation of the radiant energy of the sun into the thermal energy. This happens by heating the coolant circulating in the collector and further transmission of the accumulated heat.
b). The essential principle of a heat exchanger is that it transfers the heat without transferring the fluid that carries the heat.

An unglazed flat plate solar water heater is orientated perpendicular to the sun such that the incident radiation reaching the plate is 1100 W/m2. The plate has a semi selective coating such that the plate absorptivity and emissivity is equal to unity for all wavelengths up to 2µm, and 0.13 for all λ > 2µm. Coolant flowing in the collector tubes removes heat at such a rate as to maintain the plate temperature at 80°C. Considering the sun to be...

Example 1: Design of a Solar Heater (Black bodies: no convection) A square flat plate collector is exposed to solar radiation from both the sides. The exposed surface of the plate has an absorptivity of 1.0 for solar radiation. On a clear summer day on the earth's surface the solar radiation flux is approximately 1140 W/m2 and the surrounding air temperature is 25oC. Determine the surface temperature?...
