A flat-plate solar collector is 2 m long and 1 m wide and is inclined 60o to the horizontal. The cover plate is separated from t
he absorber plate by an air gap of 2 cm thick. If the temperatures of the cover plate and the absorber plate are 305 K and 335 K, respectively. Calculate the convective heat loss. Take the pressure at 1 atm.
1 answer:
Answer:
164.4 W
Explanation:
We can define Heat loss as a measure of the total transfer of heat through the fabric of a building from inside to the outside, either from conduction, convection, radiation, or any combination of the these.

Answer:
Percentage change 5.75 %.
Explanation:Given ;
Given
Pressure of condenser =0.0738 bar
Surface temperature=20°C
Now from steam table
Properties of steam at 0.0738 bar
Saturation temperature corresponding to saturation pressure =40°C
So Δh=2573.5-167.5=2406 KJ/kg
Enthalpy of condensation=2406 KJ/kg
So total heat=Sensible heat of liquid+Enthalpy of condensation
Total heat =4.2(40-20)+2406
Total heat=2,544 KJ/kg
Now film coefficient before inclusion of sensible heat
Now film coefficient after inclusion of sensible heat
=5.75 %
So Percentage change 5.75 %.
