Abstract
In this work, an innovative solar thermal collector system is presented for facade integration. The developed modular unglazed solar collector system is designed for low temperature energy capture, and compatible with a heat pump based combined solar thermal system. The main advantage of this system is that the lack of a glazed surface allows for its integration into common facade systems without architectural implications. Modularity, color or textures are unaffected by the integration process. This work presents the development of the collector, together with its thermal modeling and experimental assessment. Keywords: Solar collector, Facade integration, Construction, Solar systems, Ventilated facade.
