Question:

At the equator, where the sun at noon is approximately overhead, a near optimum orientation for a flat plate solar hot water heater is in the horizontal position. Suppose a 4 m × 4 m solar collector for domestic hot water use is mounted on a horizontal roof as shown in the attached sketch. The surface temperature of the glass cover is estimated to be 40?C, and air at 20?C is blowing at a velocity of 15 mph over the roof. Estimate the heat loss by convection from the collector to the air when the collector is mounted (a) at the leading edge of the roof [Lc = 0] and,(b) at a distance of 10 m from the leading edge.GIVENA solar collector on a flat, horizontal roofCollector area (L × w) = 4m × 4 mGlass cover surface temperature (Ts) = 40?CAir temperature (T??) = 20?CAir velocity (U??) = 15 mphASSUMPTIONSSteady stateThe collector surface is connected smoothly to the roof surfaceUniform collector surface temperatureMoisture in the air is negligibleNeglect radiation heat transferlosses
