Abstract
Abstract: In this study, performance analysis of flat plate solar collector has been carried out analytically.
 A comprehensive mathematical modelling of thermal performance is modelled using Response Surface Methodology and optimal geometrical and thermodynamic parameters are predicted pertaining to optimum performance of the system. In this study a model was developed for evaluating and predicting the efficiency, outlet temperature and performance of a flat plate solar collector considering the hour angle, day and input temperature as input parameters.
 In the cause of the work it was found that the days and months close to the beginning of the year (January, February, March and April) yielded higher outlet temperature and solar radiation due to dry season, while the months at the middle of the year showed lower outlet temperature and solar radiation due to the rainy season. The months towards the ending of the year also showed higher outlet temperature and solar radiation respectively.
