Abstract
Radiation capillary used as air conditioning terminal lower the demand of heating water temperature. In additional, solar collectors could also supply amount of low grade energy for heating. Meanwhile, solar is a kind of renewable, sustainable and environment friendly energy. It will save a massive of conventional energy if make full use of solar for heating. In this paper, an experimental system made of solar collector, capillary network and pump was built up and tested. According to thermal load of experimental room, both solar collector area and capillary network area are calculated, and circulating water temperature was analyzed in detail. A summary is given about characteristics of heat storage and release of solar collector, indoor air temperature varying and amount of energy saving. The key factors affect efficiency of collector includes water volume, water temperature in tanker and indoor air temperature. The results show that the solar system can well meet the heating demand and the effect of energy saving is very significant compared to common heating system.
