Determine the overall heat transfer coefficient (UL) for a Flat Plate Solar Collector inclined at 45 degrees to the horizontal and facing south. The average ambient temperature for the day is 20 degrees C and the observed glass and absorber plate temperatures are 45 degrees C and 69 degrees C respectively. The system is provided with 6 cm thick insulation (glass wool, k = 0.04 W/m degrees C) at the bottom. The air space between the absorber plate and glass cover has a thickness of 7.5 cm and the emissivity of the glass and plate are 0.88 and 0.95 respectively
