Abstract

This investigation presents an analysis of the performance of a collector-storage wall composed of concrete using the weather data of Alexandria, Egypt. An energy balance on the collector-storage wall is used to predict the energy flows into and out of the wall. The numerical model is then incorporated into TRNSYS to determine the thermal performance of the wall. The effect of the wall thickness, the number of glazing, the building capacitance, and the night insulation resistance on the performance of the collector-storage wall in Alexandria, Egypt are studied.
