Abstract

Abstract Solar air heater with a double pass configuration and rectangular longitudinal fins on one side of the absorber plate was investigated experimentally. Performance parameters outlet temperature, absorber plate temperature, output power of the air heater with fins placed in lower channel and fins placed in upper channel were presented. The effect of mass flow rate of air on the efficiency of air heater with fins in lower and upper channel were also investigated. The result shows that air heater with fins placed in lower channel is more efficient than the air heater with fins placed in upper channel.
