Abstract
SYNOPSIS Performance data has been obtained on five solar domestic hot water heating (DHW) systems for a period of approximately three years In Rhode Island. Actual physical performance has been analysed using computer techniques and compared to F-CHART predictions [1] using actual loads and state-wide insolation rates for the period under study. Brief descriptions of the systems, a sample data set, the results of the analyses, and a comparison of actual performance with calculated predictions for each system are presented While F-CHART predictions are generally higher than actual performance estimates for four of the five systems under study, the results are consistent with experimental and computational uncertainties and known systematic effects in the theoretical analysis.
