Abstract EN
A theoretical analysis of flat plate solar collectors with a vacuum glazing is presented.
Different configurations of the collector have been investigated by a detailed theoretical model based on a combined external and internal energy balance of the absorber.
Performance characteristics for vacuum flat plate collector alternatives have been derived.
Subsequently, annual energy gains have been evaluated for a selected variant and compared with state-of-the-art vacuum tube collectors.
The results of modeling indicate that, in the case of using advanced vacuum glazing with optimized low-emissivity coating (emissivity 0.20, solar transmittance 0.85), it is possible to achieve efficiency parameters similar to or even better than vacuum tube collectors.
The design presented in this paper can be considered promising for the extension of the applicability range of FPC and could be used in applications, which require low-to-medium temperature level.
