Abstract

The evolving technologies and the diminishing energy resources focuses on utilisation of solar energy. The paper throws a light on the performance analysis of solar collector with flat and v grooved absorber plate utilising simulation (mathematical modelling through JAVA based application) and experimental values. JAVA coding is included to identify the mean outlet temperature of the collector through iteration. The experiment was conducted with varying time of flat and v grooved absorber plate and compared with the values simulated through JAVA application. The simulated results have less than 5% deviation with experimental values. The results figure out that there is an increase in collector efficiency by 5% of solar flat plate absorber plate.
