Energy Efficiency Engineering

Description

To overcome the impact on the environment and the declining source of fossil fuels, renewable energy sources must meet the growing demand for both electricity and heat. Solar energy is clean and endless, suitable for being a good substitute for fossil fuels and meeting energy demands. Solar collectors are a major part of solar thermal systems, there are a variety of types of solar collectors which we can use depending on the conditions in which they will operate. In this study, the energy performance of the flat plate solar collector with working medium water and air for climatic conditions of Kosovo was analytically analysed. This paper will provide a clearer picture of these two analyzes for both types of solar collectors for a given location. As it is known, the main purpose of using one type of solar collector is to maximize its use and achieve the highest parameters of the energy used. At the end of this paper it will be clear which type of collectors with a certain working medium produce more energy and have greater efficiency given the importance of better use of solar energy and achieving maximum benefits of the collector used.

ENERGY ANALYSIS OF THERMAL COLLECTORS WITH WORKING MEDIUM WATER AND AIR FOR KOSOVO CLIMATE CONDITIONS

To overcome the impact on the environment and the declining source of fossil fuels, renewable energy sources must meet the growing demand for both electricity and heat. Solar energy is clean and endless, suitable for being a good substitute for fossil fuels and meeting energy demands. Solar collectors are a major part of solar thermal systems, there are a variety of types of solar collectors which we can use depending on the conditions in which they will operate. In this study, the energy performance of the flat plate solar collector with working medium water and air for climatic conditions of Kosovo was analytically analysed. This paper will provide a clearer picture of these two analyzes for both types of solar collectors for a given location. As it is known, the main purpose of using one type of solar collector is to maximize its use and achieve the highest parameters of the energy used. At the end of this paper it will be clear which type of collectors with a certain working medium produce more energy and have greater efficiency given the importance of better use of solar energy and achieving maximum benefits of the collector used.
