Abstract

In this paper, the optimum orientation and sizing of a thermosyphon flat plate collector−storage solar water heating systemwere determined using the typical meteorological year data for Adana, Turkey. The typical meteorological year data for thelocation was taken from Meteonorm software, and the daily hot water consumption was estimated by utilizing the Rand hotwater profile. A transient modeling was carried out for the prediction of a full year system performance through the use of theSystem Advisor Model simulation program. The effects of the collector area, the storage tank volume, the daily averagedelivery temperature and the daily hot water consumption on the annual solar fraction were analyzed by the presentedsimulation model. Results showed that the optimum tilt angle for a due south-facing solar collector is found to be 35.0° formaximizing the annual solar fraction. The collector area and storage tank size greater than 3 m² and 100 L respectively havelittle effect on the solar utilization.
