Ex.1: Calculate the overall loss coefficient for a flat-plate collector with two glass covers. The following data is given: (a) size of the absorber plate: 1.90m0.90m,(b) spacing between plate and first glass cover: 5cm,(c) spacing between first and second glass cover: 5cm,(d) plate emissivity : 0.90,(e) glass cover emissivity: 0.85,(f) collector tilt: 23,(g) Mean plate temperature: 73C,(h) Ambient air temperature: 25C,(i) wind speed : 2.7ms,(j) Back insulation thickness: 10cm,(k) side insulation thickness: 5cm,(I) thermal conductivity of insulation: 0.07Wm-K. Use the appropriate correlation from the correlation Table-1. The properties of air is given in Table-2.
