The objective of this study is to make a comparative study of the operation performance of different type of solar collectors. A flat-plate collector, a single-glazed evacuated collector and a double-glazed evacuated collector are used in this study. These 3 type of collectors are connected in series in the order of a flat-plate collector, a single-glazed evacuated collector and a double-glazed evacuated collector. This experimental facility is a kind of a solar system with a controller, a heat exchanger, a storage tank and a circulation pump. Each collector has a different collection area(flat-plate collector-$6.00m^2$ total area/$5.61m^2$ aperture area, double-glazed evacuated collector-$6.04m^2$ total area/$4.92m^2$ aperture area, single-glazed evacuated collector-$7.65m^2$ total area/$5.61m^2$ aperture area) and its performance characteristic respectively. The experiments have been demonstrated at around $70^{\circ}C$ operating temperature(flat-plate collector inlet temperature). The thermal collecting efficiencies of each collector are obtained under the different insolation and operation condition as a result.

This paper presents demonstration study results derived through field testing of a part load solar energized cooling system for the library of a cultural center building located in Gwangju, Korea. First operating demonstration system was set up in Gwangju in 2005. These system comprises the $200m^2$ evacuated tubular solar collector, a $6m^3$ heat storage tank. In a 2006, daily average of insolation showed about $506W/m^2$, the solar collector efficiency was 44%. In a 2007, daily average of insolation showed about$507W/m^2$, the solar collector efficiency was 42%. As a result, evacuated tubular solar collector kept the high efficiency for two years.

The suggested year round solar air conditioning system has been developed for cooling and heating. In particular, this system focused on cooling and dehumidification and it could reduce a peak time owing to the use of air conditioners in summer. This study was performed to find out how much heating loads could be saved and furthermore whether this suggested system would be possible to do heating without a switch of system in real situations. Through model house experiments, the following conclusions were obtained. 1) The collector efficiency was 36% at maximum, but more improved structure of suggested collector could increase its efficiency. 2) The temperature of outlet air was about $30^{\circ}C$ and it could reduce heating loads. 3) Measured temperature and calculated one agreed well within ${\pm}1.5^{\circ}C$.

This study was carried out to compare the thermal performance and operating characteristics of evacuated tubular solar collector(ETSC) with different working fluid. The evacuated tubular solar collectors with different working fluid of heat pipe were investigated in the same operating condition for a indoor experiment equipment.

Second, Ethanol showed that $F_R({\tau}{\alpha})$ was 0.6147 and $F_{R}U_{L}$ was -0.6365. Third, Flutec-pp9 showed that $F_R({\tau}{\alpha})$ was 0.515 and $F_{R}U_{L}$ was -3.2313. Finally MA's showed that $F_R({\tau}{\alpha})$ was 0.6572 and $F_{R}U_{L}$ was -2.0086.

The objective of this work is to analyze the variation in energy performance for each flat plate collector connected in series. In this study, it was assumed that solar water heating system with annual solar fraction of 60% was installed in an office building in Seoul, South Korea. The transient energy performance corresponding to four cases, which are selected using different solar radiation and outdoor air temperature, is studied by analyzing the variation in outlet temperature, solar useful heat gain, and thermal efficiency of each collector. It is observed that the useful heat gain and the collector efficiency decrease continuously, and outlet temperature increases when increasing the number of collector connected in series. The long-term performance is assessed by evaluating the thermal efficiency of each collector for two solar radiation conditions ranging from 780 to $820W/m^2$ and from 380 to $420W/m^2$. It is found that the differences between the intercept and slope of the efficiency curves for first and eighth collectors are 3.68% and 6.74% for solar radiation of $800{\pm}20W/m^2$ and 8.57% and 12.90% for solar radiation of $400{\pm}20W/m^2$, respectively. In addition, it is interesting to note that annual useful heat gain and collector efficiency are reduced with similar rate of about 6.13% when increasing the collector area by connecting the collectors in series.

Solar collectors to be applied are mainly flat-plate or vacuum tube collector which is used for hot water supply of house because of low heat value and low temperature. There are a necessity to expand applicable scope of solar collector into the industrial process heat source and air conditioner for coping with renewable energy policy of government and industrial trend. This study is to analysis the performance of PTC solar collector of concentrating type and flat-plate of non-concentrating. For this, temperature difference and heating value as insolation of air outside is measured from these two collectors mounted on 2-axial solar tracking system. It is investigated that temperature profile obtained from PTC solar collector is uniform and collecting heat per unit area is 6.8kcal/$m^2$ min which is about 3 times with compare to flat-plate collector of 2kcal/$m^2$min. Also the amount of heat to be produced from PTC solar collector is 3 Mcal/$m^2$ which is about 2 times with compare to flat-plate collector of 1.5Mcal/$m^2$ as a result of operating these two collectors during one month. Therefore, it is obtained that heat collecting performance of PTC solar collector is superior to flat-plate.

This paper describes an experimental study on efficiency of solar collector in solar water heating system connected to hourly water heating load. In general, the functional form of solar efficiency is expressed as a function of fluid temperature entering solar collector, ambient temperature, and solar irradiance. When energy saving from solar heating of water heating system is analyzed on along-term basis such as one year with given solar irradiance data, simplified analysis is more convenient han detailed system simulation for quick assessment. However, the functional form of the efficiency is not convenient for approximately simplified energy analysis because the inlet temperature can be obtained through a detailed system simulation. In the study, solar collector efficiency is obtained with various daily water heating load sand daily solar irradiance using experimental tests. The study also considers large residential buildings such as apartment buildings for application of solar water heating systems. From test results, it is found that daily solar collector efficiency is proportional to daily water heating loads and daily solar irradiance. The data obtained from the study can be utilized to find a functional relation between daily solar irradiance and daily heating load in stead of collector inlet temperature for application of solar collector efficiency to long-term approximated energy analysis of solar heating system.

Normally if sunlight is directed on a solar cell without any increasing in temperature, the amount of absorption energy per unit area of each cell is increasing. In a silicon solar cell. however, cell conversion efficiency decreases with the increase of temperature. Therefore, to maintain cell conversion efficiency under normal condition, it is necessary to keep the cell at operating temperature. We tried to design and make new hybrid panel with cooling system to prevent increasing of temperature on cell, collect and use thermal energy more effectively. We compared performance of this new hybrid panel with current thermal panel. We also evaluated conversion efficiency, thermal capacity and confirmed cooling effects from thermal absorption efficiency.
